Ordered a bit of ammo from Norma.  They used Saran Wrap to pack it.  4 boxes wrapped together and tossed into a box.  

It will still function just fine, but damn man.

It’s usually the distributor that packs the ammunition in the box. I had some from PSA come in like that but it was federal.

Looks like ammo package I received from PSA, except take away the saran wrap.  Then bash open the little boxes and sprinkle inside the big box.  
Just like that!!!

Never had that issue with a Norma direct order.

Lot of other Stuff often is so loose inside a bigger box that loose rounds are in the bigger Box.

I've seen packing like that a lot, especially when buying only a few boxes.

Whenever I buy from Norma, it is well packed.

OP, it's very good ammo. If you like it get a case or maybe 20 boxes or more and it will be packed better most likely.

Brownell packed $1000 worth of stuff in a bubble wrap envelop scratched and dinged it arrive. I started to order other stuff in order to get a box.

Real Milsurp stuff back in the day seldom had that issue. There is something to be said about being packed in either wood crates or steel cans....................
