I am tinkering with designing stuff in cad programs. What do you store with dies want to try and design a good storage box.


Dies obviously, comparators? Original oal cartridge? Note card for load data? Etc

Thanks

Dies and maybe a shell holder if a specific one is needed to size properly.

I make a dummy round for every bolt barrel I get...more times than not it's in my die box too. Half way forgot about them being in there.
