.450/.400 3 1/4" ctg. box?
Hello, everyone. I called the MTM co. today to see if they had anything to fit this case..they didn't. What do you guys use to carry these big cases to range? Thanks!

When I had my 3.25 I put the loads straight to a culling belt I had gotten from 500 grains way back. I like loading from the belt because it was practice for my hunts as well. There are lots of belts available and you might try Murray leather for a specific fit.
If you have access to Federal ammo, their boxes came with small plastic ammo carriers. I used those for my Rigby in Zim.
The Case Guard 50 H will also work for the 3.25.

The MTM one above might work, I just can't remember if it does or not.

Not sure who made them, I know some came from Bell Brass.


Also as said above, the Case Gaurd 50 works.


In addition, I sometimes put the loaded ammo into empty Woodleigh Bullet boxes.

I use Frankford Arsenal Rum boxes. They work fine for the big NEs.

I use the 20 round slip top from J&J Products. They fit 450/400 through 600. I have not tried 600 though only up to 577. I order them direct off thier website.

I justclicked on that link and those look like they would be perfect. I just got in a couple of "Ammo Vaults" for big bores but I think they are going to be marginal for the 3.25" cases.

I use the XL-50 by MTM. I cut out the fingers in the bottom of the tray and cut a piece of foam construction paper to fit in the bottom of the box.

Works perfectly.

I got the cases I ordered from J & J by FedEx today. They look like they will work quite nicely.
