as the title hints
I am having a time trying to figure out shelf life of built up ammunition
i have almost 1k rounds of 380 sitting in blue plastic flip top ammo boxes
i built them 29 jan 2016. original run as 2k. I dont shoot the 380 that much (other horses in the pen get used more) so its taking a while to run through them.
they are loaded mid range on the accurate #2 .
they have always been stored inside and never above 78F with average indoor humidity and in the dark
they do get stirred ( bounced around in the cases) along with all the other built rounds once a month when i pull all the containers out and dust the shelf and look for abnormalities in the cases. I am anal about the area being clean.
anyone have a rough guide as to how long built up ammunition should be stable?
my gut says go to range and run em, but with primers still off the planet pricey, i am hesitant to go use them up
thanks in advance
