I acquired a considerable quantity (for me anyway) of bulk 9mm ammo yesterday at the Gander Mountain T-day sale and am contemplating how to best store it… I have some plastic ammo cans that I’m planning on using, but the thought occurred to me that I could break it down into smaller units (like 100rds) and protect it using our “FoodSaver” machine but I have a couple of questions/concerns:
1 – Would I need to put a descant packet in the bags with the rounds before I vacuumed & sealed them?
2 – Any concerns with the vacuum process deforming cases?
3 – What about the vacuuming process potentially putting enough pressure that the rim or tip of one round on the primer of another to cause a round fire? (I realize it’s a long shot, just wondering if it’s even in the realm of possibilities)
