This set continues Ultracast's series of ammunition boxes.  While most are designed for the Allied modeler, this is their excursion to the Axis side.

Inside the Ziploc bag with cardboard header are nine perfectly cast pieces.  There are no bubbles, blemishes or lumps.  The attachment to the sprue is small enough to remove the parts without damage.

The boxes appear to be in proportion and the details seem accurate for the 300 round light aluminum box used since the beginning if the war.  

The best part of this set is that one does not need to go through the hassle of bending photo-etch for an accurate box (I just finished working on Aber's set - Still the best option if a box is to be displayed open).

This set is recommended as a good value at only 0.66USD for each box.
