I have used Costco nut containers and large mayo containers for years. I get about 250 rounds of .45 ACP into a plastic Costco nut container. It seems to work just fine. Burned off some 2013 vintage a month ago. No problems.
That's a good point, but if space is at a premium, then consolidation is the best option.I try to keep the ammo in the factory packages. Until I'm certain that I'll be using it within a reasonable time frame.
Why?
Because factory packaged ammo is easier to sell, if/when money is short and I need to sell.
Aloha, Mark
No. Factory ammo, stored properly will outlive you. You can put it in anything you like and it will outlive you.So it seems like you can save a ton of space by dumping 9 mil into containers, instead of storing them in paper boxes. If you are using desicant are there any concerns with long term storage like this.
One thing I learned the hard way. I dump factory ammo into containers to save space but, I tear off enough of the box to ID what it is. Used to buy a lot of that Win Steel case 9mm because it was cheaper. I would dump it into containers then use it as needed. I got into some stuff that had real problems. Since I had no way to know which lot it came from I ended up tossing it all as I could not trust it and some of what it was doing scared me.That's a good point, but if space is at a premium, then consolidation is the best option.
