There is very little that is stored in terms of Mill ammunition that is not stored in steel boxes. Blank often comes in wooden packaging, but I expect the operational stuff is packed that way more to protect it than make is secure.

I remember dets coming in small plastic cases (I still have a couple) but I cant remember what they were stored in.

And so it has arrived!
Almost 13 weeks from posting, but it finally dropped onto the door mat yesterday.
One question if anyone could help, there is no mention on the certificate of ammunition, I thought I read somewhere that the cert would show an amount that could be stored?
Anywsy, booked a session at a local club to try a few guns before buying.
Look forward to posting on the results
