I have a bunch of vials for short range benchrest and forgot who I bought them from, and I have a plastic vial for larger amounts that measures 2.5 inches long by 2/3 inch wide, but no idea where I got them from,

any thoughts, I want to load up a bunch to take with me to a match in case I need to to reload there, or for travel when I might be at the range for a week and do not have my .02 grain scale there,

Jefferson,

Check with your local pharmacy. Their pill vials come in different sizes so you can choose the size that fits your needs.

thanks again

This is similar to what I use, only mine are 6 ml plastic vials instead of 10 ml glass. My 56.5 gr. H4831SC charges fill the 6 ml vial just above half way.
The part no. is 367815, made by Becton-Dickinson (B-D)

The "red top" vials I use do not have any preservative in them (they are for blood so some other "colored tops" do).

I got a few 100 off of ebay, sometimes very good prices. I sought after glass ones as they are not static (good in more ways than one). The 2ml versions should be good for cases up to 308, the 4ml up to CheyTac loads. They come with screw-on caps.
 
found some 2 dram size about 3.5 hours one way from home, not to expensive either about 50 cents a piece with caps and tax, but have to drive to get them,

thanks for all the help,

the 2 dram holds about 110 grains depending on the inside measurements of the vial itself

can hardly wait to use them
