Is there any harm in vacuum packaging ammo? I have one of those "Foodsaver" machines and was curious if I could use it to keep ammo from tarnishing.

works great for ammo and long tirm gun storage
when doing a gun i remove the stock and seal it by it's self, for the metal i put 1 table spoon of CLP in the bag then seal. i have rifles that have been sealed for 10years without a trace of rust. pulled a Winchester mod12 trap yesterday that had been sealed for 8 years, just like new same as the day i packed it.

I do the same as OUTLAW,have been vac,my ammo for years now and works great for me.Good way to store your worked up brass till you get ready to reload it too.

Glad you asked that, I have been thinking about the same thing.



owensby - I am also thinking about packing primed and resized brass the same way before I reload it. I was loading some 7-30 brass that I had sized and primed about six months ago day and when I filled one of the cases with powder and removed the funnel, powder dumped all over the floor. Thing I had tried to double charge the case I dumped the powder out and measured another load with the same result. I dumped the powder and looked in the case, it was half filled with a spider web. I'm just glad that I was using a charge that filled the case enough to let me know there was something very bad going on inside the case.
