Those dang wooden Acme bullet boxes.

I do the same thing with my boxes. Use them for other things. Awesome packaging.

If you carefully peel the sticker off a Hornady bullet box and refill them with Lindor Truffels and Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate it will gain you "Brownie Points".

These points may be redeemed later on in the evening...

Those Acme boxes are too darn useful. All sorts of magazines and accoutrements fit in there!

I am glad I am not the only one who
Keeps these acme boxes, useful in
Deed

I keep die sets, caliber changes for my lnl-ap in the large boxes.
Individual dies, like M-dies in the small ones.
Very useful little boxes.

Mine almost always show up 'busted' (coming lose at the joints)
Nice boxes, but the journey here must be a rough one!!!

My Acme's must have been poorly put together. Came apart shortly after I got them. Not a ding on them, maybe I was hard on them. Is a neat packaging option no matter.

I haven't broke one yet, almost did trying to figure out how to get them open.

I rehabilitate mine by gluing the joints and hammering in the loose nails. They’re quite sturdy after that!

Wiley Coyote uses them all the time

Once or twice a year I use my empties for kindling.

I've never seen one.

I've got some marked 'Dynomite' ... sold to me by a wily coyote

Road Runner traps. You need an anvil to go with them.

I think they constitute an undue PIA.

I like to fill them with pistol ammo destined for the hunting cabin. Once there, they are used for many things, ending their service life as kindling for the wood stove. Love them.

As do mine.

I have about 20 of them too... Ugg, I cant bring myself to throw them away.

I think the last one I purchased came with nylon package strapping. None have arrived broken, but my mailman (lady) likes me. Dutch Bros coffee coupon goes a long way). It's surprising how much good a Christmas tip/coffee coupon helps the FED EX or UPS driver safely carry heavy boxes...

Never saw them before. Neat looking boxes. Fill them with odds & ends. Loaded ammo for the range. Put Christmas presents in them, no wrapping required. And with the 4th of July coming, you could put your waste powder in one, add a fuse and label it for Wile E. Coyote.

I keep the boxes berrys ships 250 count lots of bullets in. Sturdy plastic with a pretty nice closure.

I just can’t seem to bring myself to ever throw them away. I do find some good uses for them, but at some point I really need to get rid of some. Such a neat way of packaging. I keep ordering from them at least partly for the darn boxes, that I can’t seem to get rid of.

Keith this is in response to you post in January 2019 - I know it is an old thread - since Acme no longer sells the boxes - I'm looking for re-loaders who might want to get rid of theirs - do you have any??

I just picked up Acme bullets a couple weeks ago and still packed in wooden boxes. Although I live close to the source.

I save pill and blood tester vials and other stuff like that. Handy little containers, but they take over the house.

Just received my first order from ACME. The bullets look very good can’t wait to load some and post some feed back. Boxes are pretty cool. I’m sure I’ll find some use for them when the bullets are all loaded.
