Ammo Box .303 Ball

An ammunition box or cartridge box is a container designed for safe transport and storage of ammunition. It is typically made of metal or wood and labelled with calibre, quantity, and manufacturing date or lot number. A rubber gasket is common in the hinged lid to protect the ammunition from moisture damage.

The resealing ammunition box is largely a NATO tradition.  Not all ammunition boxes are metal. Wood and corrugated fiberboard have also historically been used as a method of packaging and storing ammunition.

Due to their durable construction, used metal ammunition boxes are popularly re-used for general storage and other purposes. Used ammunition boxes have lead and propellant residue inside, so should not be used to store food or drink.  Ammo boxes come in all sizes for all weapon calibres.
