MTM Deluxe Flip-Top Ammo Box with Handle - 50-Round Capacity for 270 Winchester, 30-06 Springfield, 8x57mm Mauser
- Model:
- Deluxe Ammo Box
- Material:
- Polypropylene
The MTM Deluxe Flip-Top Ammo Box with Handle is a robust 50-round capacity storage solution built for hunters and shooters who demand reliable protection for their ammunition in the field or at the range. Designed specifically to accommodate larger rifle cartridges like 270 Winchester, 30-06 Springfield, and 8x57mm Mauser, this box combines smart engineering with rugged durability to keep your rounds safe and organized whether you're heading to the range, on a hunt, or managing your reloads at the bench.
What sets this MTM box apart is its four protective fingers that cradle bullets in the down position—a feature that matters more than it sounds. When rounds are stored point-down, those fingers keep bullet tips from contacting the box bottom, preventing the tip deformation that can affect flight characteristics and accuracy. The design also leaves enough space between rounds for easy one-handed removal, so you're not fumbling with stuck cases when you need to load. The fold-down carrying handle is tough and practical, and the stackable design means you can organize multiple boxes without wasting shelf space.
Built from polypropylene with a textured, scuff-resistant finish, this box resists cracking, chipping, and the warping that can plague cheaper storage. A full-length mechanical hinge replaces the "living hinge" design on some MTM boxes, providing solid long-term reliability. The snap-lok latch keeps the lid shut during transport, and a pressure-sensitive label on top gives you space to record your load data and sight-in notes—a small feature that pays dividends when you're managing multiple handloads or factory ammunition variations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this box work for my 270 Winchester and 30-06 ammunition?
Yes. This MTM deluxe box is specifically designed for 50 rounds of 270 Winchester, 30-06 Springfield, and 8x57mm Mauser. The internal tray spacing and protective finger design accommodate these larger hunting cartridges.
What's the difference between storing bullets point-up versus point-down?
This box is designed primarily for point-down storage, where the protective fingers in the bottom cradle and protect bullet tips from making contact with the box base. Point-down storage prevents tip deformation that can affect bullet flight. The product notes that some rimmed cases may fit better in the point-down position—refer to the MTM bullet chart for your specific cartridge.
Can I stack multiple ammo boxes together?
Yes. The stackable and lockable design allows you to organize multiple boxes without taking up excessive shelf or storage space. The mechanical hinge and snap-lok latch keep each box secure when stacked.
Is there a label or way to record what's inside?
Yes. A pressure-sensitive load label is included on the top of the box, giving you space to record your ammunition type, load data, sight-in information, or any other details relevant to the rounds stored inside.
