For a long time I've been content to use the original pellet tins as my "active" container.
During COVID, AOA included a pretty sweet screw top container in their swag package for the "EBR 9.5" lockdown edition. At one point there was a company called "PELLCAN" making something similar. That container opened my eyes to the possibility of using something other than the pellet manufacturers tins.
Since I stumbled upon the .20/18.9 from NSA last summer I've been using that machined EBR container to hold the slugs. I've got a tri-tune kinda thing going with the BRK Ghost and shoot three different projectiles from it. So when my wife asked for Christmas stocking suggestions for that fun tradition (I've still got young children) I started looking around online for nice pellet container to use for the third projectile used in the tri-tune.
And this is what I decided on....Keenso Pill Box, Waterproof Pill Container Sealed Box Copper Pill Container for Pocket Round Pill Box Dustproof Waterproof Moisture-pro Dry (L) https://a.co/d/fE5xl4d
The three projectiles of the tri-tune shown here for size comparison.
Diameter...
Height....
And inside....
It's brass and it's heavy, even when empty. It'll hold more than half of a tin of .20/15.89s. I'd recommend it more for target shooting than hunting, but so far I've been happy with it for my typical type of shooting. And it's been easier to grab the right container the first time, now that there are three distinctly different ones.
