I managed to finally find a couple of photos of a Canadian ammunition can used for bandoliered ammunition on one of the auction sites. I did ask if I could use the pics on this website but got no response. I'm taking that as permission to use these photos, if the photos belong to you please contact me.

Also I got an email from Terry in Ottawa stating:-
"While I don't have any pictures, I can confirm that the Canadian arsenal production used packaging just like the Australians. The box was light plywood, unpainted, with a 1" or so strip stapled to each side around the four sides to form a lip for a plywood end panel. There was a light webbing strap threaded (or stapled?) to the end for transport. The four sides were held together with heavy wire that turned back on itself and threaded through a loop for closure. The markings were on three sides for concealment. I don't especially recall the markings except the obvious nature, qty, plant and lot with the date. As far as I remember, 7.62 in boxes on clips, linked or in bandoliers was packaged the same way. The Norma 168gr sniper ammo came in Swedish factory boxes (with that woodgrain look) and packed in ordinary cardboard."

Dose anyone have any photos of the the above mentioned packaging?
