I am buying a selection of powder and am trying to find out what the demensions of the various containers are so I will have proper storage for them when they come.
Does anyone know the demensions of an 8 lb and 4 lb container?

6x6 6x9 5x7 these are for 4-8 lb containers depending upon whom makes them.
they all will fit on a 13" tall shelf.
it seems as though the faster powders are in the larger containers.

Runfiverun,
Thanks,
I have never purchased larger than a 1 lb can so needed data to ensure safe storage here.
I have nosy neighbors that get excited when they see gunpowder so I keep it all stored out of sight.

7MM if a little money isn't a big problem check into getting a 7 or 8 rifle locker or school locker even a smaller tool tote for the back of a pick up.
They are all lockable aznd made of metal and ususally go cheap.
Good Luck Ken.
