I started buying most ammo by the case a year or so ago, and I transfer the cartridges to 100-pack, plastic CaseGard containers. Then I got the bright idea to stack 'em two-up and vacuum-seal 'em. I figured, "Why not?" The bags aren't that expensive, are resuseable, and in Houston there's a greater threat of flood than fire. Keeps my cartridges pristine, and if we have a Katrina or Rita, I'm good to go without worrying about how to keep my ammo dry. It's also a great way to store a hangdun if you plan to pack it in the safe and not use it for a few months. Takes all of about 20 seconds and air and moisture can't get to your gun.
I don't have one hanging over my showerhead, though...
Maam always said you learn something every day! Genius!! I am going to night to get one of those food saver things.
