Thread: Safe place to store ammo?

Im always a bit uneasy about ammo locked inside the house. Imagine if you had a housefire. Wouldnt want fire brigade going in.... much easier to ket garage/shed burn than house.

Good demo. Had always been curious about if a rifle round would build enough pressure when not held in a chamber.
R.e the powder. I believe its more the insurers that dont like powder in the house. I just burmt half a pound on the back lawn
Just sizzles. Less dangerous than more common accelerants like white spirits, meths etc

I wonder if having ammunition locked in a safe or container makes it more dangerous than lying around loose (ie not dangerous at all). Wonder if a fireproof safe would prevent heat from cooking off rounds/powder.
