[QUOTE="ldp4570, post: 1167881, member: 5168"] Dessicant really isn't needed for loaded components unless your ammo is to be stored outside of your home in a shed or other outbuilding where there is no heat or air. Then it really only needs to be stacked and stored where it can breath. If your storing in MilSpec type cans all you need to do is put a couple of small boards on top of each can so air can circulate, and make sure your cans are off the floor as well if there is a possibility of flooding. When dessicant is used with military ammunition its more for items such as guided munitions, and its there for the hardware not the explosive. Its very hard to damage selfcontained ammunition such as small arms with the effects of weather. [/QUOTE]
