30 Caliber ammo can full of .44 Specials weighs a bit over 33 pounds.
100 loaded .44 Specials weighs 6 pounds.
The empty ammo can weighs 3.5 pounds.
There are 500 rounds of .44 Special in this can + or - 10 rounds.

you know what CDO is, right? It's like OCD but in alphabetical order - like it should be. 
My CDO tells me you can fit even more in there if you lay them in straight instead of dumping them in randomly...
So THAT'S how much 500 rounds of 44 SPL weighs! No wonder the Rogue was riding with its nose to the sky last June. Between grandkids, luggage and ammo we were loaded to the gills!!
I am sure you would get more in ...... BUT ...
it's too heavy now! You ain't gonna stick it in a bug-out-bag with everything else and run off into the woods.
I too "suffer" from CDO.

I use that line often. I also get a lot of blank stares.
That is one of those things that gives one a fullsome...
