Is it ok to vacume seal ammo? My wife has one of those plastic food sealing machines so i thought if I want to store/hide ammo safely like in a damp basement or garage that would work. But will anything stupid happen like the powder getting dis-placed in the cartridge or whatever ?

Should be good to go, Ive done it before with no problems.

Why not dump the ammo in a sealed ammo can? They pop up for sale quite often, plus they can be stacked easily.

+1 I forgot to mention that while I have vacuum sealed ammo before, I now keep all of my ammo in .50 cal ammo cans. ---> http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/24742-50-cal-ammo-cans-buy-1-get-1-free/

cabelas is selling sellier and bellot 9mm in vacuum sealed pouches so I'd imagine it wont be an issue. Also I dont see one of those machine creating enough pressure to damage then ammo as the only thing that pressure could do is deform the case or cause bullet set back.
