I agree on the "full" weights of loose ammo, the .50 cans get heavy.Interesting. I've gone away from the fitty cal cans and gone to thirtys. The fittys weigh to much to tote any distance when full of 9mm. The thirtys stack in a 2x4 wall cavity mostly.
Never tried it, but I know wool is bulky and will compress a lot.Best "hack" I've found is to take a standard US Army wool blanket, and with careful folding, put it in a .50 Cal can.
I've only needed it a couple of times, but having a nice, dry blanket that was accessible in 15 seconds was friggin' awesome.
IF you try this, it will probably take a few tries to get the right fold series, and a bit of pressure to get the lid shut.
So you’re saying I should buy your house in the estate auction and tear the sheetrock out?Interesting. I've gone away from the fitty cal cans and gone to thirtys. The fittys weigh to much to tote any distance when full of 9mm. The thirtys stack in a 2x4 wall cavity mostly.
Fine, but you'll look less rugged, when it's TEOTWAWKINever tried it, but I know wool is bulky and will compress a lot.
I'd just use a vacuum bag.
Just who will be "looking" when I'm getting out a blanket to go to sleep or stay warm?Fine, but you'll look less rugged, when it's TEOTWAWKI
