The Plano 1712 is a medium-footprint field box built to store .50 caliber ammunition, though it handles tools, electronics, and general gear just as well. Shooters and field crews reach for it when loose rounds and small kit need to stay dry and organized on the range, in the truck, or in the field. The polymer shell runs lighter than a steel mil-surp can while holding the same kind of protection, and the heavy-duty carry handle makes it easy to move a loaded box one-handed. For anyone organizing a duty load alongside other bags and packs, it slots in cleanly.
Plano builds the 1712 from high-impact polymer plastic and seals it with a water-resistant O-ring lid backed by a brass bail latch, which keeps moisture and dust off the contents. Exterior dimensions run 13.75 inches long by 7 inches wide by 8.75 inches high, with an interior measuring 11.25 by 5.5 by 7 inches. That interior swallows a working supply of .50 caliber ammunition, with exact round count depending on the cartridge. The latch is lockable, so the box can be secured for transport or storage, and the reinforced hinge takes the strain of a heavy, repeated open-and-close cycle. The whole unit is made in the USA.
Use the 1712 to consolidate range ammo, keep a desiccant pack with stored cartridges, or carry electronics and small tools through wet conditions. The O-ring seal and locking latch make it a sensible choice for anyone who hauls gear between vehicle and field and needs the contents to arrive dry. It also works as a rugged catch-all for the smaller items that get lost in a larger kit. Pair it with a desiccant pack for long-term ammo storage, or browse our other equipment bags to round out a field loadout.
The 1712 is sized for .50 caliber storage, with an interior of 11.25 by 5.5 by 7 inches. Exact round count depends on the cartridge and how you pack it, but the medium footprint is built around .50 cal loads while still leaving room for general gear.
Plano rates the 1712 as water-resistant. The lid uses an O-ring seal backed by a brass bail latch to keep moisture and dust off the contents. It is built to keep ammo and small items dry in field conditions, though it is not certified as fully submersible.
Yes. The latch is lockable, so the box can be secured for transport or storage. This makes it useful for keeping ammunition and small valuables contained when the box is moved between a vehicle and the field.
