    I am mainly looking for some good .30 cans, prefer new but used in good condition would be OK. Everything I have found equals or exceeds the .50 prices when shipped.

    I have picked up a few .50s at Rural King, they currently have new ones on sale for $13.

    Check Widners, i think i saw a deal posted on Slickguns for $8.00 each, don't remember the shipping but i think it was a good deal. I prefer the .50 cal cans but this seemed like a good deal to me.

    I like the smaller cans too and they are hard to find so I started going with the plastic ones a few years ago and had good luck with them. You can get around 500 rounds of 40S&W in one or 500 223. Just a thought.

    I am looking to load some bulk loose rounds into some cans, the .50s are going to be on the heavy side when loaded full.

    I have some plastic ones, looking for the metal ones. Rural King here only has metal in .50

    A few months ago, I ordered a bunch from a1bargains on eBay. I was getting new BLACKHAWK .50's for $15.99 SHIPPED and new BLACKHAWK .30's for $14.99 SHIPPED. May want to contact them and see if they have more in stock and see if they'll honor their past prices.

    I don't know if they are still doing it but I just got some from midway. They were $21 for both a .50 and a .30 cal can. They are brand new

    And Chinese made IIRC. Not knocking you, boogieman. Just annoyed with yet another example of "why can't we make this over here?"

    I've picked up .50cal cans at Bradis II from time to time. Usually they are in good shape and reasonably priced. Sorry can't remember what I paid the last time I got some but I'm sure it was under $15.
