Very interesting---it's as useful as it costs. Hi-price not useful---decent price extremely useful. Let's find out the costs involved, my Anschutz tin holder was $4.00 ten years back. "Doc"

It's $49.95 + $5 shipping.

Considering the machining and if it's a quality anodizing, that's a reasonable price. However, it's replacing something that's free and somewhat functional. And since most shooters are notoriously cheap...

I use regular tins with the plastic clip to keep the lid on, and then one of the "shaker boxes".

I find it hard to believe he can sell these for a price that would compete with the above combination. The shaker boxes aren't cheap, but they are a heck of a lot more useful than an open can, no matter how pretty it is.

I bought a few tins of the Gamo Match pellets in the 250 count tin and after I used the pellets for moly coating and practice, I use the container for match pellets. I like the screw on lid, and for $2.50 I get some decent practice pellets and a compact sized container that I can relabel and re-use.

If Hernando could machine or duplicate the H&N Finale Match pellet box
out of aluminum, then it's worth the $50 and shipping.

But for a 'simple tin' i'll prefer using a leather or nylon pellet pouch...

Isn't the MEC "tin" about $75? I don't think it threads, though.

MEC pellet tin is just friction fit, a very tight friction fit though.

$49.95 is inexpensive. I have access to lathes and mills and couldn't do it for anything approaching $50, plus anodizing and engraving. Problem is, do I really need it? Nice product for sure.
