Have you tried Scientific anglers system x box? For $19 it is a preety
awesome box



I've tried them, and don't really like them. I like the shape--probably
helps with pockets. It's fairly heavy, though, and I actually don't care
for waterproof boxes. It might be superstition, but I prefer boxes that
can breathe a bit. This box isn't any easier on hackle than everyday
riffle foam, so I would still use a compartmented box for dries. I really
don't like the latch.

Also, the Petitjean boxes I mentioned aren't much bigger and heavier than
the foam inserts for the system X. These really are the best I've tried
