[QUOTE="Repubiman, post: 2716926, member: 971"] Yep I've stored .22 ammo all sorts of ways and never had a problem with it. I will tell you that most of mine is just stored in original container in a safe except for a couple boxes of 550 rds. Of Rem. Golden bullet and 550 rd boxes of Federal. I put then in a metal 50 cal ammo box and stored them in a storm cellar for about 3 years in just the cardboard they came in. When I got them out to check on them they all had a white powdery substance on the bullet heads. They still shoot fine but I believe it was due to humidity changes and or temperature changes. I have a number 10 canner and have thought of long term storage for kids and grandkids. Maybe store ammo in a #10 can with O2 absorber and some desiccant and seal can for kids to use at future date in time. Maybe vacuum seal Ammo and put in #10 can with desiccant. [/QUOTE]
