I store ammo in USGI ammo cans. I use silica gel packets to help absorb moisture. Every 6 months or so, I heat the gel packs in an oven set to 225 for about 30 minutes to get rid of any absorbed moisture.

Never store loose, bulk powder or primers in a USGI ammo can. Once you latch the can, you have a bomb.

Never store loose powder or primers in a gun safe for the same reason.

I keep my dies in die boxes on a shelf, powder and primers are kept in original packages, on an open shelf.
