Brass storage?

[CodyK]

Just wanting to get some ideas from y’all, on how you keep and organize your brass. I started out just using the big ziplock freezer bags. It worked great. But now instead of one bag per caliber, I have several of each, and keeping everything halfway in order has become impossible! I have bags all over the damn place! I was gonna grab a bunch of the plastic storage bins, but I thought y’all could give me some better ideas. I really need to get organized!

I use Rubbermaid Roughneck containers, the small and the next size up and 5 gallon pails.

I use a few methods that might be useful for you. First is clear plastic bottles with screw-on lids (repurposed pretzel containers) second is rectangular 3 gallon buckets (repurposed food supplements for horses). I like the square shape because they stack and store better.

And....for large quantities there is always the trusty 5 gallon pail. You can get about 8500 empty 9mm cases in a single 5 gallon pail. But you might not be able to move it around much as it is heavy.

Ammo cans hold a lot of loose brass and are compact and stackable. They come in several sizes, but I find the 50 Cal. cans to be just right.

I use all the above.

Ammo cans are mainly for loaded ammo.

Stackable plastic tubs (about 1 gallon size) from WM work well and are affordable. Bigger buckets and screw on lid containers are handy too.

Most smaller screw on lid containers hold bulk bullets. Bigger containers get too heavy.

I adjusted my lunch to include mixed nuts because they're healthier than chips and I wanted the containers for reloading stuff. It didn't take long to get knee deep in them.

Clear plastic storage bins from Lowes. They're stackable.

I use the clear Sterelite plastic containers. Not expensive, lid locks in place, and stacks well. Multiple sizes for different calibers and quantities of brass.

Looks like you robbed the bank, dropped the contents of the safety deposit boxes and ripped the boxes off the wall. LOL!

I like to use the black & yellow Sterlite containers for large quantities & the 8cup clear cheap plastic containers from Kroger while depriming & cleaning. Once i get enough small containers filled. They go into the bigger Sterlites. The smaller containers dont take up as much room on the bench while cleaning brass. Then i throw some silica packs in for the moisture.

I got buckets from work for collecting and sorting. Once it’s been cleaned I sort it out and use various size priority boxes from the USPS. That way I can ship it out if need be.

Down size a bit and keep
it simple.

Bins from Home Depot for ready to load and Dollar General stackables for every thing else.

I use some like the white pails that originally had cat litter in them. Holds thousands of cases. Also use the near gallon size snack containers too. Depends on what I saving. Small volume calibers get the small container. 9, 40 and 223 get the big pail.

I steal memes and horde brass.

I use the large coffee plastic cans, the large clear jugs that animal crackers came in, clear nut jars, etc, most any large container with a wide mouth suffices. No need for me to buy special containers for brass.
