This would have to be the smallest box in my collection. Measures 6 1/4" x 5" x 3 3/4". Contains 180 .380 cartridges in 15x 12 cart boxes.

I have compared it with the photos in the H.25 Mk Ie thread, and the major difference appears the change from Hemp/Flax/Sisal rope and twine to the use of Wire for the handles, retaining the lid and securing the lid. Another point is the internal dimensions in the Mk2 appear smaller. The Mk Ie shows a tin inner box, while the Mk2 is a snug fit for 15 packets in a 5 x 3 arrangement.
