Question, I have a box of 1000 rounds of .223 that is packaged in a way, that takes up a huge amount of space in my safe. I am not really interested in selling it right now, but wanted to know if I took the rounds out of their cartons, and placed them in a more storage friendly size carton, would I take away from any perceived value "If" I chose to sell or trade later in life. If I kept one or two of the original boxes folded in new carton?

 

As you can see in this case, each box takes a lot of space the way they are packaged??

 

 

 

Think of it as boxed GOLD

Show off.... Hahahaha.

 

I can safely store it for you

Ill take seconds...lol

It's fairly generic .223 FMJ. Take it out, put it in an ammo can and save some space.

 

If you were talking about more expensive precision loads like .338 Lapua or .300 Win Mag, I'd keep it in the original boxes.

I agree. I have taken ammo out of boxes and store it in a ammo can loose. Its the only way to save space. You can fit almost 1300 rounds of 45acp in a 50 cal can, 2200 rounds of 9mm 124gr ammo in a 50 cal can. easily get 1300 rounds of 38 spl in a 50 cal ammo can and 1200 rounds of 223 in a 50 cal ammo can.

I can offer storage at a rate of 1 box a week

HAHAHAHA, Thanks guys... I knew I could count on "ALL" of you to help with this dilemma....

I never really thought of it as high caliber stuff. I was more concerned about actual perception of value with box or without... But your right about Storage....
