how do you guys store your ammo? I have mine in ammo cans stacked in my gun safe, fire is probably one of my biggest fears with ammo, I know it's not like the movies, just wonder if being in a enclosed ammo can would cause a larger issue with pressure build up, what do you guys do?

Mines in a locked tool box. I've only got .22 and I usually keep 500 to 1,000 rounds on hand, so I can easily manage with just one tool box. When I branch out to other calibers down the line I'm going to have to go to another system.

If you want to add fire rating, line it with gypsum board. that is pretty much what they use when they make the fire rated gun safes.
