Range Boxes

I make and sell range boxes out of 3/4" pine with removeable, and sliding trays. The "inside finished" measurements are; 7" top to bottom x 9 1/2" front to back x 22" side to side. Sanded and stained with walnut danish oil.
Two hinges, hasp for padlock, two buckle type latches, and
heavy wood center top carrying handle. I also made smaller
ones with these same features.
The key to making a good range box is accessibility and
storage of your shooting supplies. I normally charge $45.00
to $75.00 dollars per box. I've sold nine to date.
I would post some pictures but I don't have that capability,
sorry. Designing and building your own range box is not a
bad idea. You get what you require this way, and it's a
good project. :thumbsup:

Wood's OK and looks cool, and all, but it adds too much weight for me. I bought a plastic one at Gander Mtn. that weighs very little. Especially when you consider all the stuff that goes into one. It seem to keep getting fuller and fuller and heavier and heavier........ :m2c: :shocking: :thumbsup:
I just bought a 19" wide Stanley plastic toolbox for $7.88 at Lowes to hold all my re-supply shooting and cleaning stuff at home. (I've also got a corner cabinet with nuttin but balls, primers and flints and a hinged storage box full of pre-cut wads, and one large garden carrier in the cellar with nothing but lube fixins, and my powder is in the original shipping case up on a closet shelf. :haha
It ain't purty, but for $7.88 it is servicable. This one is just stuffed with what would normally be left out on the worktable in my tiny den.

Cabelas has a great little range box made by PLANO that also has a gun craddle to hold your muzzleloader while you clean it. Here is the address:
