You might try a box of baking soda.

I have tried many things to get rid of the smell. Left it outside opened for 3 weeks to air, left bleach water in it to soak, scrubbed it numerous times. But as soon as you close the lid down that smell comes back. I have even left dryer sheets in the box hoping that would help, but the smell over powers the dryer sheets. How does one get rid of a smell inside of a metal box? I hate to just pitch this ammo box since it is in excellent condition other then being smelly. Hoping maybe someone else had and issue with an ammo box. Thanks for any suggestions. Jen Until one loves an animal, part of one's soul remains unawakened. Anatole France
