    Magazines and clips.

    About half of my "serious" ammo is loaded in magazines, the other half, and all of my range ammo is kept on clips

    Something close to this. Ammo stays in the 20rd boxes, stored in ammo cans. I always s have a few mags loaded, and load a few more the night/hour/minute before I leave to go shooting. In a perfect world I load enough up to prevent having to reload mags at the range.

    I keep mine in the factory boxes which are then stored in ammo cans. I only keep a mag or two loaded with my serious use ammo.

    I have everything. The bulk of my ammo is in factory boxes in ammo cans, but I have loose too, and some on stripper clips. About half of my mags are loaded. Probably should just load them all, but I shoot different ammo depending what gun I'm shooting and what I'm doing that day. Now I'm getting into the .300 Blackout game, so I'll have to dedicate and mark some mags for the .300.

    BTW, once you fill a 20mm can with >3K of 5.56, it gets kinda heavy.

    All of the above. I much prefer loaded mags or stripper clips at the range. Otherwise it's just wasted time loading mags when I could be shooting. My reloads go into a can and as they are inspected, I load them into range-mags or used stripper clips.
