With vacuum-sealed bags, your ammo remains extremely safe and secure from all sorts of elements. In addition to this, using vacuum bags to seal your ammo up also allows you to safely bury it underground. Since vacuum-sealed bags are so small in size, storing all of your ammo in this fashion allows for much better organization of your entire supply. Between this and the ability to see clearly what kind of ammo you have via the clear bags, your organization game will go from lame to fame.
Lastly, something that we really suggest when it comes to vacuum sealing your ammo is playing around with the size of the bags that you make for storing your ammunition.
Feel free to make one! Would you like to have another bag that just holds 6 bullets? You can do this as well! Having so much say over the size of your bags not only helps out when it come to storage, but it can also improve how ready you are to act in a certain situation.
This will suck out the air and make it airtight. After that, you can place it in ammo. And then store it for later. Now, this was just the gist of the technique. We have the detailed version right down below. So, dive into our segment to know the full process.
Now that we know which ammo can be stored. You can pick any of these or any long-range and store it if you want! Besides buying it from the store you can make your own shotshells and store it!
So, does vacuum sealing ammo work after a while? Your ammo if sealed properly will function okay. That is keeping in mind that the place you stored it in is airtight.
This is because moisture can get in and damage the ammo. Suppose you went to buy ammunition for your hunting trip next week. And the store you got it from had a great deal going on. So you thought of stocking up on some of these.
And for these to not go bad, we basically vacuum seal it. Moreover, if stored in the open, the gunpowder and primer might deteriorate. This might happen due to the moisture and the heat in the environment. And ultimately hamper the performance of your bullet, in times of need.
So that if the weather is damp or rainy, your ammunition will stay intact. Yes definitely. This is the most reliable method of storage. That is too when compared to ammo cans. However, even the best of the best methods have some flaws.
This method effectively removes every bit of oxygen from the bag. And also some added oxygen absorbers, just to be more certain. Besides keeping the ammo airtight, vacuum sealing also prevents it from rusting.
And you can also get a clear vision because of the transparent plastic. Moreover, this is the cheapest way you can store your ammunition. Furthermore, you can categorize these sealed bags into sizes and numbers. Or how much ammunition you have left in your pack when hunting.
However, there might be a problem with vacuum seal ammunition. Your sealing at times might not be tight enough. And thus oxygen might get in and decrease the shelf life.
Also, the gas level and temperature sometimes can decrease its longevity. Furthermore, once you open the pack the preservation is lost. This is due to the ammo being in contact with the atmosphere. Moreover, if you use very thin plastic or the cheaper ones, it might leak. And this is very harmful to the environment. We have an option for using sustainable polymer plastic.
These can do the task without harming the environment. You can use two methods to store your ammunition. The first is to store it for the short term. And the other one is for how you can store it for longer-term. Here are a few comparisons between the two methods-. You can store your ammunition for the near future use this way. Therefore, store those 20 bullets in this method. And to store the rest, follow the long-term method.
Now separate the ammunition you want to store into different categories. This can be according to the size, type, etc. Also, add the number of ammo there is in your packet. You can divide them into 5, 10, or 20 bullets per bag. This will help you organize them better as well. Now you will load your ammo in the bag and use your sealer to close it. Check for cuts or holes in the bag before you store it.
You can blow air into the bag to check for any rips. If the bag is alright, you can seal it. Just take your ammunition sealing machine and press on it.
I can be pretty OC about some things. That isn't one. What is a safe level of humidity for non-sealed ammo? Terms of Service. All times are GMT The time now is PM. User Name. Remember Me?
Thread Tools. FederalHST Member. I've wondered what would happen if you vacuum sealed a box of ammo. If it is an ammo with a sealed bullet and primer..
Or when powder burns, does it produce it's own oxygen? I know when you get a battle pack of ammo it is not vac sealed Anyone have any experience or knowledge that would answer this question?

Decker Member. I can fill one of those up with around rounds of. Of course, with the ammo, I drop in a note to myself detailing the load information for that batch. One consideration I do give to the ammo I store long term is that I don't handle it with my bare hands. I wear gloves during all processes at the point of tumbling and going forward anyway, so I also wear gloves while handling my loaded ammo for storage in order to avoid body oils from causing long term tarnishing of the brass while in storage.
Oh jeez, maybe I'm the retentive one? Find all posts by Decker. Find all threads started by Decker. Visit Decker photo album. Gulfecho Member. Find all posts by Gulfecho.
