Ammo Box for Plastic Tip Bullets?

[Ingwe]

Maybe a crazy question but I am wondering if any of you use a different type of 20 round plastic ammo box other than the standard MTM style. I can imagine that those plastic tips will get damaged/deformed after banging around in the truck after a while.

Any ideas for me?

You invent ,produce ,we buy cheap,give you good reviews then sell and make a buck or two..LOL Good question....

I would just put a piece of foam on top of the bullets and close the lid on it. It will keep them from jumping around.

Those MTM boxes are exactly what I use...........but to stop the rounds jumping around, whether plastic tipped or lead tipped, I use closed cell insulation foam to sit in the lid and it holds the rounds in firm contact with the bottom of the container so that no jumping occurs.
While on the hip, no rattling occurs either which is a huge plus!

Cheers.

Put a cotton ball down each hole.

Not something I've ever worried about. I've been using tipped bullets a long time. mtmuley

I would need to say that it is mostly fragmentation at the end of the day.
Yes it looks good but so does a FMJ or HP

Some non pointed bullets (hp) are more stable (accurate) than the pointed ones so aerodynamics can be debated but maybe not speed.

The Vmax is an exploding round... it does a lot of flesh damage and kills quickly

The FMJ does the least amount of flesh damage and has the best penetration.

The hollow point is a mix of the above two... tending to be closer to the FMJ... more stopping power in most cases than the FMJ (other than tough penetration shots) with slightly increased damage but not a ton of damage like the Vmax

The Vmax bullet is a very well designed payload that is fast and effective killer... just like the rest of them when used under the right circumstances.
