I still have 16ga shells that are from the 70's

They still shoot and look fine. Unless something has changed with ammo,
I'm sure storing it anywhere indoors will keep it for 40 or 50 years.

I just store my loaded ammo in metal ammo cans lined in duct tape. The metal on the inside was scratching the shite out of the cases.

I shoot pretty often and haven't put any ammo into long term storage so I haven't needed to worry about moisture or anything. But I think in my next batch of loads I may do some SHTF ammo. I really like the food saver bag idea.
