What's the best way y'all have found to store and organize brass to keep lots separate and easy to identify? Right now, I'm using a combination of old coffee cans and ziplock bags. I figure there has to be a better way.

Thanks!
 
Ziplocks with yellow stickys with number of firings/which rifle if the multiple of the same cartridge.

Ziplocks are moldable so they can be "shaped" in the storage container.

I try to keep most in the ammo box, just use tape on the lid telling me number firings. Into the loading tray and back into the ammo box.
 
I use ammo boxes with notes in them to show what prep etc has been done. The rifle and cartridge are listed on the outside of the ammo box.

I also keep pretty meticulous records. Every loaded round is documented. Keep the fired brass in the ammo box with a note as to the particulars. You will find yourself firing a few rounds just to "close things out" sometimes. But then the lot of brass with the same # of firings can be bagged and tossed in the larger bin that has all of that cartridge.

Its also easier to have only one gun that has a given cartridge. There are so many women I mean guns, why have two of the same......
