What Custom loot are you talking about? You have not added any custom loot tables. What you posted is the default loot table examples.

If you want BetterLoot to handle the Bradley crates, you should set "Use custom loot table to override crate loot": false NOT true.

You are getting only C4 because that is the default example loot items.

I knew it was something simple. Just wasn't catching. It.  Thank you so much

"Use custom loot table to override crate loot": false
