A refirigerator is also a good place. Especially for a lb or 2 of black powder.lawrnk wrote: I'm agreeing with this. I think/hope the fire would be out by the time the safe temp got hot enough, and I tend to believe the safe is the safest place for a cache of ammo. It also weighs it down to inhibit being mobile to thieves.

Re: Ever wonder what a housefire will do to your ammo cache?
When the bullets are flying past your head, one still isn't going to feel comfortable about it.
Actually Mythbusters is probably right, although I've been there while they were cooking off, I've never seen any signs of penetration.

Re: Ever wonder what a housefire will do to your ammo cache?
I've been in a couple of structures that were cooking off ammunition. It is unnerving, What typically happens was I was able to very quickly put the fire out where the ammo was things cool off and the danger is fixed. If for some reason the fire doesn't go out real quick. The firefighters aren't going to hang around.
