MTM Ammo Crate Utility Box ACR7

Product Information

Moisture is enemy number one when it comes to your ammunition. Damage from exposure to too much moisture can take form in a number of ways. While extreme heat or cold alone won’t destroy your ammo, too much swinging between one extreme and the other can wear on the casings primers and ruin their efficacy. Storing it your ammo in places like an attic or the trunk of your car makes it susceptible to rapid changes in temperature. Storing it in a cool and dry place will give you the best chance at maintaining the lifespan of your ammunition. The generally accepted range is between 55 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit.

Ammunition containers are great for storing boxes or individual shells of rifle or shotgun ammo, but not if you need to carry around preloaded magazines for your higher capacity rifles.

Inside the box, you will find a foam padding that features pre-cut slots for your magazines. This material and the spacing prevents them from bumping into one another in transit and causing damage to either the magazine or the ammunition. However, moisture can get to your ammo in less obvious ways as well. In areas with high humidity, moisture can be pretty unavoidable. When the air itself is wet, you need to take more serious measures to protect the longevity of your munitions.

The MTM Tactical Mag Can enables you to store up to 14 magazines of 10, 20, or 25 round .308 caliber ammunition. This is the type of ammo typically found in AR platform firearms. This container is a great option if you are taking your high-powered rifle out on the range and don’t want to load the magazines at the time of shooting. Why limit yourself?

This kind of approach is also a responsible thing to do if you have kids in the house. The last thing you want to happen is an unattended minor getting hold of your gun accessories. Ammo Advice

It can also foul up the primers and make the powders inside the casings useless. That’s why it’s important to store your ammo away from any water sources when it’s being stored long-term. The MAGNUM 53540 is a bundle of three different sized ammunition containers. If you are going on a hunting trip with a few types of firearms and you need to bring along different sizes of ammunition to match, then separating them into these MAGNUM containers is a great idea. We have all heard the term “military-grade.” This typically means that the item is built with the highest quality materials possible so that it can endure the hazards seen in combat. The Solid Tactical 50 Cal Ammo Can is the closest one when it comes to this in quality, functionality, and construction. Also, never store your ammo with your firearms. It is always safer to store them in two separate secure locations for obvious reasons.
