Plano Storage Boxes

› Shooting involves a lot of small tools and equipment, so decent storage for these key items is pretty essential. Cadet Direct offers a range of Plano storage options that are high-quality and ideal for the job. The two products reviewed here stand out as particularly useful for shooters.

Plano Large Rustrictor Ammunition Field Box
This box is specifically intended for carrying ammunition, but it is ideal for storing shooting accessories too. At 34.2 x 21.5 x 15.2cm (LxHxW) internally, the box is large enough to hold binoculars, a cleaning kit, or ammunition. Smaller items can be kept in the lift-out tray, and the top-access storage compartment in the lid is ideal for other accessories you may need close at hand.
The box is infused with a Vapour Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI), which surrounds the contents with rust-proof protection. The water-resistant O-ring effectively prevents dirt, water, and dust from entering the box, and the heavy-duty body is shock/drop-resistant. The large top handle has a comfortable grip, and there is also a padlock tab for added security. The catch that secures the box and compresses the water-resistant seal is bright red, large, and easy to operate.
In addition to being perfect for transporting items to the range, this box’s protective qualities make it an excellent choice for safely storing important items such as reloading equipment or electronics in challenging conditions. If your reloading bench is located in a garage or shed, this box provides a safe and reliable way to store items like primers, keeping them well-protected from moisture.

Plano Guide Series 4-Drawer Tackle Box
This is a more compartmentalised box intended to hold a larger number of small items. As a gun-cleaning station or a reloading gear box, it is therefore highly suitable.
There are four drawers, each sub-divided into compartments of various sizes, and additional sub-dividers are included, allowing you to further customise the spaces. The drawers are protected behind a ProLatch front door, which folds down flat when open and holds all of the drawers securely in place when closed. This means that when you are carrying the box, none of the drawers can accidentally slide open and spill their contents. The drawers also have restrictors fitted, which means that they cannot slide all the way out and fall from the box.
Additionally, there is a bulk storage compartment beneath the lid for larger items, along with two top-access trays, each featuring clear Duraview lids for easy identification of their contents. At 45 x 25 x 31cm high, and weighing 3.2kg, this is a relatively big box, but the large folding carrying handle on the top makes it very easy to transport. Whether you use it to take to the range or keep it at home full of reloading accessories, this is a high-quality, strong, and practical storage option.

Conclusion
Both of these boxes are of good quality and are ideal for protecting your shooting accessories. They are also well-priced and available for purchase by mail order from Cadet Direct.
