[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1605076, member: 12995"] Under normal storage conditions (kept at a constant temp, no excessive moisture, etc...) they can last nearly indefinitely. This is why loaded ammo from the late 1800's can still be fired if it was fully-sealed and stored in a constant temperature. Think of the old spam can .30-06 ammo from WW1, or really old Swedish 6.5x55 mil-surp ammo stored in sealed metal cans still being useable and stable. I do all my loading in a spare room inside my house (temp controlled, no moisture), and store all my components the same for this reason. [/QUOTE]
