what temperature should you store handgun ammunition?

Bound's hubby here:\n\nIf you store your ammunition and components at (seasonal) room temperature you should be ok. Store primers in their original packaging and away from moisture. My work shop, which is not air conditioned is where the majority of my components and ammo live. It shoots great! Just make certain your ammunition is not exposed to extreme heat (fire). Try to avoid extremely long term storage. For example, I try to use my target ammo within 10 years of their "manufacture". Keep in mind, gun powder will degrade over time and lose it's umphh! Primers, if they're kept dry, should have a near indefinite life span. If you reload, take a break from reloading if you're reloading environment is experiencing high levels of humidity. \n\nGood luck.

optimum temp of -65° to 450°F grease for use in anti-friction bearings, ... \nfluids offer a maximum usable temperature range of approximately 250°F

-40 F or -40 C is a good estimate

If you are using round ball then the old method was to place a ball in your hand and use just enough powder to cover the ball. But it's not really a serious problem as you can't really overload a modern black powder weapon. The only problem you would have is seating the ball enough on a revolver for the cylinder to index. I've overloaded one enough that I had to trim the ball.\n To make it easier for you just buy a powder flask which will premeasure the load for you.\n Make sure you seal all of the cylinders after you have it loaded to prevent a cook off of all the cylinders at one time, it gets really interesting when that happens.\n If you've never used black powder before it's a lot of fun, a little messy but well worth it.

M-16, AK47 don't have one --- \n\nyou can use a gun storage chest, gun vault, wall mounts etc. for storing your weapons ---keep weapons locked away and out of sight

.308, 7.62x39 are ok rifle cartridges for defense, 12 gauge buckshot is a lot safer/more deadly in a home environment though.  10mm/40 S&W/45 ACP are all fine pistol cartridges, 9mmx19 is a little underwhelming in my opinion.  As far as cheap goes, go for a SKS (7.62x39) and a 12 gauge remington 870 shotgun.  You can get both of these for about $425 total.  A good handgun is gonna cost you quite a bit more, don't buy the cheap stuff like kel-tec, you will be dissapointed.  Buy a brand name like S&W, Kimber, Para Ord., ect.

Take a look at the gun manufactures website and only use ammo that they recommend.  Seriously, you could ruin your gun or hurt yourself if you play around with other stuff.

Typically, I would say a common housefire would run around 1000-1400 degrees, although as others have stated, they can run in excess of 2000 degrees.\n\nThe other thing to consider when buying a safe is that they are typically rated for exposure to a certain level of heat for a certain length of time.  A cheap safe will withstand a flash fire - a very hot, but very short-lived fire.  What you want is a safe that will withstand a moderate fire for an extended period of time, 20-30 minutes, maybe?  Not really up to speed on safe standards.

Read the instructions given to you by the pharmacy. They should tell you the optimal storage procedures.

18, possibly 21 if it's handgun ammo.

dont do it man. if you put co2 into a compressed air/nitrogen gun, it can freeze up the internals, and that is an expensive fix. compressed air runs a lot nicer through the marker, and doesnt have to worry about changing its form so often (liquid, gas). compressed air is straight gas the entire way, and it a lot easier on the gun.

i use CB caps for what you are doing.  it's a regular long rifle case with just primer and a smaller bullet.  CCI makes them, and i bought a brick from cabelas.  it shoots a 20 grain bullet at about 900 fps, no noise either.  i can hear the hammer fall.

Yeah, but I wouldn't worry too much. \n\nWithout the pistol what's the worry about having ammo that also happens to fit a pistol?  It's having the pistol that's the real issue. Right?\n\nAlso .22 rim-fire is very low power, not that I want to be shot at by it! :)
