Thank you for sharing your ammo storage ideas with the rest of us. <br /><br />We had 43 comments total, which is awesome. I ran the tool at Random.org to pick a number between 1 and 43. It selected "22". Then, counting through the comments, I see "Wirecutter" as the 22nd comment. Congrats, Wirecutter! <br /><br />I'll be emailing him to get him his 9mm ammo. Thanks again to everyone. I hope you're having a great summer and it was awesome to hear from you all.Erichttp://www.ammoman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-4229503388295185812014-06-12T11:18:33.110-07:002014-06-12T11:18:33.110-07:00Howdy Sam,

Every three months the dessicant bags get rotated with ones that have gone thru the 220 degree heat to remove the moisture. I also check the rounds for any sign of rust. When I go on the road and will be shooting, I take a spare .50 cal can and place all the rounds that I will be using for the day in there.<br />Kevin of Rockford Illinois.

But, I've talked to to many people who put multiple FMJ in some jihadi and had to wait for someone with a rifle to actually put him down. Shot placement is alway important, especially with a 9mm but that is a goal, not something you can count on happening every time. The Army went to EFMJ for a reason. EFMJ is pricey but it will feed in anything and still expand. Would that satisfy us both.Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04847838711554968285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-50635839836590504122014-06-10T07:02:40.418-07:002014-06-10T07:02:40.418-07:00Ammo cans, most of my ammo is in 30&50cal cans...Ammo cans, most of my ammo is in 30&50cal cans, my pistol ammo is in a 40mm can, that said, too much to realistically haul, a while back there was mandatory evacuation due to a forest fire.

I would never ...Hello, Eric, Sam and Agent Smith,<br /> I would never buy or keep anything that would be of any use in resisting tyranny, and if I did, I most certainly would not prefer the 5.45mm platform due to material cost savings/greater stockpile when evaluating the platform plus training ammo and stockpile. The fact that large quantities of surplus ammo already come in metal cans intended for long term storage would only be a bonus. <br /> I am a fan of the battle pack concept, and would consider having some .223 in it, but I don't think it really translates well to pistol ammo...if you need a battle ready resupply of 300 rounds of 9mm, you're using the wrong platform. And if it is for training, might as well just have the tin can. <br /><br />I am pleasantly surprised to hear how many are doing their custom vac seal of what works best for them and their situation. If I were a product designer, I would consider a 210 round battle back, with 4 to an ammo can. Full basic load for 2 buddy teams in a can. Do many of you expect to carry a basic load 3 full mags higher than the army standard?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-64316353155262185202014-06-10T04:09:38.800-07:002014-06-10T04:09:38.800-07:00Ammo cans with silca gelpacks.Ammo cans with silca gelpacks.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17135937353323076261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-69235753079466256762014-06-10T04:06:03.320-07:002014-06-10T04:06:03.320-07:00I'm with Israel... no seriously I am.
