Loading for my 450/400 I’m having trouble finding boxes to hold the rounds when I go to the range. I usually use the various sized MTM boxes for other calibers. But it doesn’t look like the make one that fits the 450/400 other than bullet down. I’ll do that if I have to but prefer a bullet up configuration.

I like the MTM because the plastic they use readily accepts labels I can write the load data on and they peel off without too much residue.

In 2024 I had the privilege of hunting in Namibia, which was an unforgettable experience. If there’s interest, I’d be happy to share a short report...

Not sure where this would be appropriate to post, but I am needing some advice. I just started helping a local club and they do a couple of fish fries each year as a fundraising effort for charity. I bought tickets last year to contribute to their cause. The food was NOT good. I didn’t care much at the time because I knew the money I spent went to a good cause. Now that they have me involved, I’m trying to improve the food at the event to get more of the public to attend.

If you have done...
