[QUOTE="J-B welder, post: 2109483, member: 115997"] Good stuff. To me, the biggest issue is confinement, i.e. potential build up of pressure in case of ignition. Bottom line, bottles of powder on an open shelf is safer than powder stored in a metal container such as an ammo box that will allow pressure to build up before rupturing. The regs don't mention what the SAAMI brochure on smokeless powder does: "Storage cabinets should be constructed of insulating materials and with a weak wall, seams or joints to provide an easy means of self-venting." It's just fuel. [/QUOTE]
