Sure if all hell break loose it can even be the new dollar and everything traded for bullets.

But do you really wanna live in a world where bullets is the country currency?

Genuine question: Does ammunition go bad over time if kept in a cool, relatively dry space? Like talking 10+ years. I wanna know if I can just stock up a cabin in the woods and forget about it or if I should just plan on trucking everything with me when the flag goes up and I bug out.

Bong here, never purchased bullets in my life. I've just googled a box of 1000 9mm rounds and it's $200.

So are you saying you store hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition in your house...?

Metallic cartridges will last around 100 years give or take a few percent of them having hangfires if kept dry and cool.

Will last indefinitely if kept air tight.

So that's about $3k of something to make a house fire a little more interesting a foot and a half below your body - nice.

>> No.8212145

If you are planning long term storage, worth investing in vacuum packing them. They last basically indefinitely that way.

As an investment though, terrible idea because as long as shit doesn't hit the fan, you won't be able to liquidise them very quickly if you do end up needing money. You would probably get into trouble with the law flogging 100k rounds.

>> No.8212149

>>8212082
Ammo is basically inert. In a fire it'll make a lot of racket but won't even penetrate drywall, and most of it is in cans anyway. There's a neat video on YouTube for EMTs where they simulate a fire in an ammo shop and some other scenarios to show that it's not dangerous.

>> No.8212907

I'm sure without the compression of the chamber of a pistol and the rifling of a barrel a bullet is not going to do the same thing as if it's set off by a fire.

But 15000 rounds of it under my bed would still make me feel jumpy.
