I'm in need of some boxes for 8-bore 3.25" ammunition. Anyone know someone who could make these for me?

I'm not looking for something fancy, just practical.

Thank you

Are you looking for something made of wood, plastic or maybe leather?
 
Interesting, you might give Ken Owens a call. With the work he has done on the really big bore’ I would guess he has either made or has found for a customer.
 
I’m thinking you could bore holes into a wood block. Deeper on the bottom to hold the shells and shallow on the top to keep it from sliding around. Maybe some small foam circles in the top and bottom to keep them snug.

Kinda like a box that holds an alpha-numeric stamp set.
 
Was hoping for plastic, weight will be a real issue.

Might take a small pelican case and cut holes in the foam to match cartridges.
 
The Pelican 1200 comes with Pluck-n-Pull foam. Could work for you.

Hi Jon,
I saw your post for the .500 NE cases. Are these all brass or are they nickel plated? Hard for me to tell... sorry.
Thanks,
