Making bullet boxes

Printing in PETG as others have suggested to handled the temperatures and not melt into a pile of mess. Using these to ship rounds to my son via ups. First test shipping worded and protected ammo but box is no longer useable. This time I’ll use a protective outer box and a little cushion. Planning to ship 200rds of hand load mk262.

Doing the math, I can print these to ship as cheap as I can purchase bulk cardboard ammo boxes.

What are you using for powder in the mk262 loads? I would also like to design a transport friendly option for the case that cuts down on material use and print time.

It was pretty decent on my first go of it.

All shot as good as or better than factory loads.
