Does anyone still use one?

Anyone know the specs on weight capacity on the Vintage Pachs & Gun-ho Range cases??

My current rolling 4 gun range case is huge 3,888 cu in capacity, It hold up to 4 Large Frame Dans, 2 pair ears, tools, targets, up to 400 rounds of ammo.   With 3 guns ammo capacity doubles.   It's great for Outdoor Ranges where there is lots of room.

PROS: Capacity, wheels, built-in collapsible pull handle, exterior molded bumpers. foam-lined hard plastic dividers, Sturdy carry handles on 3 sides.   I also run a locking cable through all 3 handles when diverting to other locations as deterrent when left in truck.. Piano-hinged lid.  I could drop it from 2 stories and the contents will likely be undamaged

CONS: Huge: Exterior 20"X20"X16, Almost embarrassing to take to an indoor range where space is tight. Capacity/Weight: Fully loaded it weighs in @ 56-57lbs.   Lifting into truck before shooting ain't for the weak. Locking latches could likely be compromised with a screwdriver.

Looking for something smaller about 1650 cu in with wheels and padlockable.   A full hinge would be nice too.  

Maybe a Pelican 1510 or 1550?    Problem is the dimensions may not be a solution as a all-inclusive 3-gun range pack.   Having an additional backpack or soft range bag defeats the purpose.   2 guns are always Large Frame Dans.

I like the access setup of the vintage cases.   Adding a little wheel dolly would be simple.   Concerned about lock/security.

What are y'all using?   

Pics, comments, suggestions?
