A family that shoots together stays together

I have ammo over 30 years old and it fires perfectly stored in military cans with desiccant.

Everyone gets on me for dumping it out of boxes

I work in shipping and receiving and have access to unlimited dissident packs of all sorts. Folks these things are a live saver. Throw some in your ammo storage containers amd boom your golden...

I have every gun you just mentioned great minds think alike

Everybody has their own ideas and methods. Your system works for you and that's what matters.

Everyone will always have an opinion to how others do things. Just like you have people who love glocks and that’s all they have or sig people is all they have. You do you and what works for you!

I'm ready for some more Gun Activities!

I've been so busy haven't slept more than 4 hours a night in 2 weeks! Busy busy!

Just my two cents, if at all possible, I avoid the loose pack. Only because I took a 1400 count bucket of Remmy and checked it for loose bullets in the case. I found over 400. that is a lot of bullets at risk. I understand it when that is what's there, I try to buy the CCI and such in the hard cases. When hunting I prefer the good stuff, but one day it may come down to that bucket of Remmy. Also the bucket was short 125 rounds.

That bucket of bullets is the worst ammo I've ever shot. That's including ammo that was used during the breakup of Yugoslavia

I use cans as well. 40mm work great for boxes of 12 gauge. Fat 50’s hold Ar mags upright. Then I have an assortment of 30 cal and 50 cans. I like to keep the can weights around 30 lbs. makes them easier to move.

I use ammo cans but keep ammo in factory boxes, also I consolidate... For example... boxes like 9mm Blazer I open two boxes dump all the ammo out of the trays and then place 100 loose rounds in one Blazer box, and they fit basically to the round perfectly... and when doing it I just make sure lot numbers are the same...Probably would only recoup cost on a recall of only each box of 50, but I'm more concerned with function rather than cost... Plus I just like the grab and go that a box brings. There's a brother on KZread in Hawaii that dumps all his ammo in cans and on one ammo haul he scored some battle packs... Pulled out his knife and started cutting them open...I was screaming _noooooo not the battle packs_ .... 😆👍 Thanks again n God bless

I’m with you On the storage. I put mine up in the same matter.👍🇺🇸

Costco has 4 mini cans and a tray almost indenical to the mtm ones you posted for $20.

Good deal

I do same as you, but keep them in the boxes for organization and lot numbers. Not to mention if I ever want to sell some for something else I want the box.. Like recently I sold some M855 to buy more heavy OTM.. Would have been harder to sell loose, at least in my experience.

I try to keep things in the original box so there's no confusion if I ever barter or sell in the future. But they sure do take up a lot of extra space in the cans . Anything above 9mm comes in unnecessarily large boxes for some reason .

Yup everyone does it differently. Im huge on lot #'s cause ive had a explosion of ammo before and at the time having the lot # and original box saved me. The company replaced my firearm and gave me new ammo. Desiccant pouches is like a must for ammo. If i have different brands, weights and lot #'s ill vacuum pack the ammo with the end of the box and lot #. Or just keep it in the factory box. I mainly try and get ammo in bulk to keep the randomness down and make storage easier but thats not always possible.

Some rubbing alcohol will remove that old felt pen

For sure!

Do you brotha! Nice collection 👍

What about getting ammo to vacuum seal bags in the ammo can for the long storage? King of keep emergency supply.

I also really like federal AM 22lr but watched a vid where they got a bad box & now keep mine in the boxes. Great content & look fwd to more!

I've found the AM has dropped in quality between pre and post CV19. I'm now adding Aguila as it seems to preform better, in more rifles.

Your fine dude people shouldn’t judge

How I currently stock is pour it all in ammo can count the first one than times that by how many cans you have to get a good estimate

I like it!

It's the way you think it should be done. Getting shook by comments is part of KZread. I keep my stuff in the box because of recalls on ammo and it gives lot numbers.

I don't get bothered by comments. I welcome them. I just wanted to explain myself better is all.

I was thinking it before u said it,he said do do

Hello again, I stumbled upon your channel recently and l;I’ve your content. You store your ammo how you see fit. I store my ammo similar to you. I pack my target ammo into sandwich bags. I put 200rds in each bag and label them with bullet info. Then they go into a 50cal ammo can. When time comes i know exactly how much ammo i bring cause its in 200 rd increments. My self defense ammo status in its original boxes and they go in a 50 cal ammo can.

Whats your answer to a huge house fire? Is your ammo protected?

Ammo in a house fire will just pop. It needs a barrel for it to have pressure to become a projectile.

I store mine the same way and dont mix anything-

Where you get your tags from?

@GunActivities365

Amazon. Type in ammo can marking tags or caliber tags

The only wrong way to store it is if it is stored where it will get damaged. The rest is really just the random opinions of people who aren't even real. :D
