Has anyone else done this? I got a food saver for Christmas last year. I have used it for my ammo that I keep stored for extended periods of time. It sucks out most of the air and seals it real tight. Just curious if anyone else does it?
Edited to add:In case some of you don't know what I'm talking about. here are some pictures.
This is the food saver, the plastic material that will turn into the bag, and the ammo. I have one full box of WWB .45acp 230gr. JHP and one partially full box of the same.
Here is where I started to measure out where to cut the plastic material.
And here is the final product. I changed my mind and decided to stack the boxes instead of them lying flat. You can see how well it sucks the air out because it crushed the box some where there are no cartridges.
Now the rounds should be fresh for quite some time. They are very airtight. I could also have put descant in with the ammo but I don't have any on hand.
