I have an abundance of the white 10 gauge 3 1/2" boxes and I use them for the 8 gauge . They hold 21 or 22 forget which . Well I use boxes when I feel like boxing them up . In most situations I have plastic tub type things in the back of my truck filled with a specific load for this gauge or that gauge .

Back in the day, Remington Arms - Union Metallic Cartridge Co. used dividers like a case of wine in their two-piece 8-gauge boxes.

I remember seeing this style before at a auction .
Would you know when they dropped the No. headstamps and went to putting gauge instead ?

Here are some reproduction boxes I have seen .
