How long does ammunition last?
How long will stored ammunition remain viable? I imagine humidity would get to most ammunition without taking special precautions (a humidor of some sort) in about twenty years, spoiling the primer and/or gunpowder, but that's just a wild guess. Anyone have an idea on an actual time frame?
My father had reloaded some .38 Special rounds many moons ago (I'd say 30 years) and when my mother went to fire a few rounds recently, the primers were bad.
