[QUOTE="dmj, post: 1144842, member: 73479"] I just shot up some 300 win mag ammo that I loaded approx. 45 years ago. Was using it for barrel break in plus getting the rifle sort of sighted in (on paper). This ammo shot under 1/2 groups at 100 yards. Yes I could go back through all my paper work and find out what load it was, but don't think I'd live another 45 years to let it age properly:D. So I guess in my opinion, if kept dry, it will keep for a considerable time. One reason I don't load a bunch of ammo in advance. Things are always changing. New bullets, decide to use a different rifle etc. So why have my supplies tied up in something I'm not using. [/QUOTE]
