New pellet can from the US

[demonloop]

Think its possible aimed more at match rifle shooters, but still a nce bit of kit.

Airtight and waterproof also, unlike your pocket

[Cones]

The MEC Air Puck tin looks very similar at £26

I think it has a rounded base so the pellets roll towards the centre as the tin empties.

Thanks for the link to MY site

I agree the MEC does the job a little better.

Perhaps they are aimed at Americans with too much money

FWIW the pellet sorters (all made by H&N but rebranded by Anschutz & Gehmann) are very good, but not used by all the top shooters in my experience.

Anyone want the freebie?

I'll take the freebie, please - name your charity and I'll donate tomorrow.

They most certainly do. However, I've got a sneaking suspicion that Demonloop already knows this.

Nope,
Match shooters use containers which hold individual pellets separately cushioned and cherished, they wouldn't want them bouncing around and damaging one another's skirts!
It's a shiny but pointless box, noting wrong with that, and nice if you've nothing else to spend the money on, I'd rather spend that kind of money on pellets

I always think these kind of things are the most pointless inventions around.

Yes I'm from Yorkshire and therefore tight as the proverbial (insert your own simile), but even so.

There's plastic pill containers (airtight). Tic tac boxes. Buy a tin of accupels and keep the nice screw top tin once you've got rid of the contents (shooting them optional). What else ... freebie tins of mints from conferences. I've even seen tins of that exact design being sold as special pellet tins!

You could even push the boat out and invest £4 in one of the plastic "safety boxes" for the standard tins.

Or my favourite the new "Safety Band" (r)(tm), "Keeps your lid on" (r). A very eye catching shade of red they are too.

They're my favourite price and you find them on your doorstep after the postie has been.

Well done on getting a freebie, they need to push it somewhere where folks are both richer and dafter

+1!

I use those hard leather pellet pouches - they're absolutely brilliant, tough and well worth the money.

To me, they have a sort of olde-powderflask look to them and are well shexshy

[madnurse]

I think you are all missing the point. Dont forget that the new can is also air tight, considered essential for the storage of lead

Lead does oxidise over time. Whether oxidised pellets perform worse is another matter entirely. There's a fair chance that 10M match types will worry about it.

[Charlts]

Well I like it, I fancy one for each gun with the pellet type/batch no engraved. Hmmmmmmm......

Il stick with pellet pouch

[Powderfinger]

I have been using the same empty Eley Wasp tins for the last thirty years. They do everything this new-fangled tin does for a total cost of zero and my pellets don't seem to suffer for it. I shoot alongside some very high-level 10m shooters and what most of them do is just decant 100 pellets from the tin into their H&N (or RWS in my case) plastic pellet box. I noticed at a recent regional shooting comp that some shooters in the top-class were simply using straight from the standard tin held together with the strip of tape. I have never seen one of these new-fangled airtight mega-expensive tins at a comp. Which says it all. Still, if you have money to burn and want some bling, it their for the buying of.

[Hollowpoint]

Yes its very expensive but I think it still looks great! nice annodised finish probably pretty quite and crush resistant.

But maybe im just saying that because I was gonna make myself something similar this weekend

[medellin]

Hey guys! I'm the one who makes the Pellcan. Thanks for all the positive comments. For all those who've already ordered, thanks twice! Just to let you know, after much feedback from many users, I'm currently prototyping the next model which will be 1" smaller in diameter. Expect the same build quality and some new features too.

Cheers!
