How are you guys storing 12g for very long term.

I've been shooting the same 12ga ammo for years. Left them in the original boxes and put them in a .50 cal can. Not climate controlled. They've been fine.

I shot a lot of surplus 30-06 in the early 90s that was produced in the 1950s. Stored in ammo cans. Never a hiccup.

Thanks guys. Yeah to be clear Im currently shooting stuff from 2013. But PSA recently had a sale on Winchester 00 buck and I bought a ton. The boxes are annoying and take up too much room in the safe. Im thinking maybe a 20mm or 40mm can.

The 20's work real good for shotgun ammo, and I use the 40's for rifle and pistol.

These are 20s mislabeled as 40s but $20 is a great price for grade 2 https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1918262232

2 for $77 shipped

Amazon probably has better return policy for $100 for 2 https://www.amazon.com/PA120-Ammo-Can-Holder-Matte/dp/B081WT2QDZ

Looked at both pics, those are 40's. Still a good price though.
