I use the metal tool boxes from walmart. I have a couple now since I am in the process of upgrading all my old plastic toolboxes to the metal ones. But the plan is to have one for every muzzleloader. I've got two metal and 2 plastic with one gun not having it's own box yet. I also have a larger "range box" that I use for general items like patches, targets, and such.

I probably have close to what you have but break it down by the gun. Each gun's goodies are in a seperate box.

You can not see that but, the containers in the bottom all have compartments with different gun's parts in different compartments... and buried under all those sabots are the essential tools for each of the different guns... but that box goes everywhere with me when I am shooting or hunting - course the box stays in the truch for hunting but it is there....just in case...

Here's everything I take to the range. The left box goes with every gun, the right box is my 50 Extreme range box. For hunting the only thing different is that I take the dissasembly tools in the gun box and Icarry the rangefinder in my pack. I also don't take the extra powder (red shotgun box) hunting. I keep it at home where it's dry.I normally cary 7 shots hunting. 3 in the orange speed loaders, 3 in vial, and one in the rifle.
