Regarding the use of cardboard boxes. I have my father's ammo cans from probably the early 1970’s. Inside each can are a dozen or more of boxes of ammo in cardboard boxes. All the ammo is as shiney as new. I think the cardboard effecting ammo is when its left outside of airtight cans, especially in basements and garages. My father never even used absorbers in the cans. Once I took possession of the cans, I did use absorbers. So leaving rounds inside cardboard boxes is absolutely fine, if they will be in airtight containers.

Load your mag while watching TV is the most enjoyable thing during weekend

Dessicant packs for the oil on your hands? Do you know what dessicant does?

Thank you! You answered all my questions regarding ammo. Especially the question regarding the cardboard boxes!

I just learned something from this video. Thanks.

Awesome saying ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

One .50 cal can will store 300 .308 in 20 round box or 1000 5.56 in 50 round box or 1000 9mm in 50 round box or 2500 .22 LR in 100 round containers (CCI plastic) I built a wooden shelving unit that houses 35 cans (5 shelves of 7 cans) for my shtf ammo which i started gathering quite a few years ago. 1500 or 5 cans .308 (900 168 gr hpbt/600 147 gr ball) 15000 or 15 cans 5.56 62 gr ball. 5000 or 5 cans of 9mm (3000 124 gr XTP/2000 124 gr ball). 25000 or 10 cans of .22 lr (5000 CCI 32 gr HP Stingers/20000 CCI 36 gr HP). ((46500 for those that count)) Each can also has a desicant pack in it. My training/hunting/range/practice ammo and ammo in other calibers is also stored on shelves but not in ammo cans. Some is stored in mags others in original box and some in mtm 100 count boxes. Do not forget water food medical and training. The stuff in the cans on the shelving unit does not get touched. The stuff on my other shelves and in my mags get shot and rotated thru. . Two quick comments, first the cardboard boxes are fine .. the army has been storing stuff for years that way and honestly so have I .. second desicant will not effect the oils .. that is not what it does.

I have stored my preps in Metal and plastic containers. I store them in a dark dry place. I have preps packed in the early 2000's that are in pristine condition. But, do as you like.

You can vacuum seal the ammo with the original box .

Alright so i'm hearing mixed things on leaving it in the cardboard. Other people say as long as you store the cardboard when you get it it is another layer to protect the ammo. Could I get some votes with more experienced hoarders? God bless 'Merica brothers

10K of 22 lr round never hurt anyones bank account

One thing to remember is your state specific restrictions to storage, from qty maximums (fire marshal), requirements to keep in original packaging indicating caliber/guage.

Reload! Even today it's slightly cheaper, but I'm not costing my time!

I always load all my mags before I hit the range. Especially if it’s an indoor range which I don’t go too that much. Way too many newbie’s or larpers 😅

Agree plastic ammo box sucks

Hey Where did you get that ammo can with the inserts for the magazines

1:24 lol

He stored his box of hollow points in my pj drawer. Now I can't get the smell out the drawer. I washed the clothes and put them back and again they smell like gun powder. I think it's in the wood, but febreeze, vinegar , charcoal has not worked. Any suggestions?

That’s an impressive beard buddy, is it all natural or are you putting product in it? 🤔

Just received my trust fund and picked up 3k of HP 9mm last weeekend. I am gonna keep stacking.

Why does BDU take months to ship products?

How long can loaded mag sit before mag spring loses its return force?

cant hear ya

I stopped after I saw plastic cans.

Do you have too have a beard and flannel for a firearm related video 🤔🇺🇸

M855 ammo is literally garbage. It’s the worst of both worlds, it’s not AP and doesn’t tumble and fragment. Personally I think m193 makes more sense for most applications and it’s cheaper.

If you want to save money on ammunition RELOAD

Yawn zzzzzzzz
