what's the safest place for me to store from 3-5 1 lb cans of goex black powder?
my options are as follows....
2nd floor spare bedroom that's currently my "gear closet". it's temp stable, dry, away from ignition sources, with the exception of live modern ammo stored there as well. one wall away from the master bedroom.
basement. cool year round and dry, gas hotwater heater in a semi partitioned off other area, tools, sometimes used to work in, so may occasionally cause the errant spark.
out building. separate from the house, metal building ( garden shed type). no control over temp, can be stored off the concrete pad and kept dry, other flamables including about 30 gallons of gas, lawnmawer, stringtrimmer, etc., door padlocked, but wouldn't take much to get in if someone wanted to.
would a large mil-surp ammo can be a wise idea for putting the cans in?
any thoughts or ideas?
