So I got my Frankford Arsenal 512 and the MTM RS5016T ammo boxes yesterday.
I am not too impressed with either one but, I will tell you;I would not recommend the FA 512 for 6.5 Grendel like all the other people say too.
Its too big, too loose, and wider and taller than the MTM boxes.
I got 3030 rounds in upside down in the FA 512 and the lid closes tight.
The hinge sucks as well on the FA 512.
Both will require foam in the lids to get the rounds not too rattle, the FA 512 will require more.
I know I am nitpicking but, that is my Army OCD kicking in and I hate my crap rattling in my pack when i am on the move.
