What are ammo boxes?

An ammunition box or ammo can is a container designed to transport and store ammunition safely. It is typically made of metal or hard plastic to provide excellent impact resistance and protect your ammo. Some ammo boxes even have a rubber gasket in the hinged lid to protect the ammunition from moisture. They come in many different sizes and materials, such as wood, metal, and hard plastic. You can also find shotgun shell trays and ammo loading trays to keep your ammunition organized.

How can you store ammunition properly?

Your storage method will determine the shelf life of your ammo. When choosing an ammo storage location, shoot for an area in your home that is dark, dry, and cool, but not cold. If possible, do not store your ammunition in a basement, as underground areas tend to harbor moisture and be more humid. If you do want to keep your ammo cases in the basement, investing in a dehumidifier is an excellent way to reduce moisture. While ammunition doesn't "expire," storing it properly can keep the gunpowder in bullets from losing potency.

How can you choose the best ammo box?

Ammunition storage can be tricky, as there are many ammo boxes out there to choose from, so you must know precisely what you want before making your purchase. While it may seem obvious, make sure you consider the exact size of your ammunition when selecting an ammo box. Measure your bullets or shotshells beforehand. If you plan on having multiple ammunition boxes, consider getting several metal boxes because they are easier to stack on top of one another.

Also, consider your home climate. If you live in an arid or dryer climate, water resistance may not be a significant factor to consider. However, if you live in a tropical zone or if your area is prone to flooding, a water-resistant ammunition box is a must-have. There are some metal ammo boxes for sale that can float in flooded waters as well!

Plano Ammo Boxes are made of rigid plastic, making them heavy duty, water-resistant, ammo storage containers. Most come with removable storage shelves for organization. Whether you choose a metal or hard plastic ammo box, many are lockable storage containers to prevent theft.
