How many rounds will fit in an ammo can

Lookin out for your kids and the next generation. I love the thought of that brother. Awesome vid and thank u.

[@frogman7986]

That’s what I was thinking, if everyone in this country looked out for the next generation we would be alright

[@RickyWilder]

Wow, this is worth more than gold right now. Thanks for sharing the numbers!

[@tw2889]

This guy nailed it on the head on collecting ammo.

[@jpro132]

You could make a killing selling this ammo right now.

[@blakedavis2447]

Or he could keep it and then he’d have ammo

[@immts6475]

Are you crazy for making the video or am I crazy for searching the exact title? Maybe we both are nuts haha

[@landrun89]

No I think we are both very much sane!!

[@ilwv77m98]

Can you make a follow-up video about how much each of those cans weigh? Please.

[@benjaminarmstrong7047]

I have a box with 1350 9mm in it and it's heavy. 2500 has to be a ball breaker!

[@IndependentArmz]

Yeah, .50 cal full is a booger.

[@user-ui8sp5th4g]

dude thank you so much for this i was wondering what the limit was as i want to fill an ammo crate with all those rounds.

[@JP1970]

Great video. I just bought two 50 cal ammo cans today and designated one as 5.56 and one for 9mm. I sub'd--thanks!

[@victorraye57]

Good Video... I put 2,000 rounds of 9MM each in my Ammo Can... Anything more is getting way too heavy to carry...

[@kingjohn3480]

So... fill it up to the top

[@Erik-rc7iy]

Buy it cheap stack it deep!

[@collectorbob810]

5 years later.... ammo shortage

[@gregv2821]

Thank you. Exactly what I was looking for.

[@mikehoward8201]

What's that 50 cal can of 22lr weigh? Just curious. I know I cannot get 6000 rounds in a 50 cal ammo can because I am packing my 22lr in cleaned and dried 20 oz. Gatorade bottles, working on filling those bottles now. Being 70 years old I am not interested in carrying a heavy a$$ can around, to the range etc, but I can readily get a day's supply in one bottle. Once I get several filled and put in a can, I will weigh it. But hoping you can give me the answer on a 6000 round filled can. Thanks!

[@thastinger345]

A full 50 cal can of loose rounds, of any type, is going to weigh between 60-70Lbs. 1300 230gr 45ACP or 2500 9mm 124gr or 700 150gr 308 Win loose rounds are gonna weigh about the same.

[@michalbarsfajny4268]

@@thastinger345 No. I have full cans with 223, 9x19 and 7.62x39. 9x19 is heaviest - 27.1 kg. Next is 7.62x37 - 18.8kg. And last is .223 - 16.6kg. Imagine that you have full box of .30-06 ammo with 100gr bullets and second box with 220gr bullets. If you put 500 rounds into box, weight difference will be 3.9 kg. Also, 9x19 and .223 round weights almost the same. But I can fit 1200 rounds of .223 into can, but over 2000 of 9x19 will fit into can. And again, you can have super light plastic bullets or 115gr bullets or heavy subsonic bullets. That will add up

[@IndependentArmz]

If you ever have picked up a .50 cal can full of ammo. Then you know how heavy it is. You get 10 or so of those stacked up and it's cumbersome. Awful heavy to deal with. I have 10 of them. The last 1 cans I have purchased are .30 cal cans. Yeah, it holds less, but so much easier to deal with. Both are great ways to preserve ammo and other things. Thanks for your video.

[@dirtyscoundrel2013]

Valuable info. Thanks.

[@runninitup4L]

pots of gold, nice man🤘🏻

[@mossynut]

You are the first person I've seen put .22 in ammo cans loose. I've got all my other calibers loose. I just haven't done the .22 for some reason. Oh and I subbed you back.

[@Suspect002]

@Emmanuel Goldstein Highly doubt it

[@ImNoBSING]

30cal is approx half of this. Feels more practical to use those, you can just quickly load few boxes to car for a shooting trip/course. A full 50cal box means hauling, not carrying.

[@Tombstone03]

Nice video man.

[@landrun89]

[@GhostShura1984]

[@ronaldprovencher7570]

I vacuum seal my Ammo with silica pouches and store it in a ammo can .. in a controlled environment 60 to 70 degrees .. it should last forever ..

[@NayokeHenji]

simply a classic

[@gusmon452]

Dam I wish I had that!!! Nice collection👍👍

[@rayserrato9519]

Great video! Thanks for making it. Now my only question is how much do the cans weigh? I've contemplated doing this with 9mm but even keeping them in their boxes where way less fits in the can it's pretty dang heavy.

[@landrun89]

They are heavy, 9mm and .22 are the heaviest. Rifle rounds are manageable. I keep 2 cans with a mix of all my calibers that I take shooting. The full cans never get touched saving them for a rainy day. I just top off my using ammo every week, while adding to my stockpile ammo, doesnt take long to fill up a can I buy three or four boxes a week. I reload a ton as well!

[@rayserrato9519]

landrun89 Gotcha, so pretty much once it's full it sits somewhere and isn't gone in much? Do you have any weights in lbs on them? Thanks for the response!

[@landrun89]

Ray Serrato I got about 62 pounds on the 9mm. I just weighed one round then multiplied it by 2350rounds came out to 970 ounces roughly 60 pounds plus the weight of the can.

[@rayserrato9519]

landrun89 Wow, impressive. I appreciate the response. Keep stacking it up brother!

[@silvermediastudio]

Work out. They aren't much heavier than a couple 5gal water cans.

[@zachl4221]

No way. I can only fit 900 of 7.62x39 in a 50 cal tin

[@carbonsteelbladetheorigina7993]

Great Video

[@landrun89]

Thanks for watching !!!

[@jesseterrell9354]

What about a 30 cal can?

[@CantoniaCustoms]

500 rounds per can for 7.62x39 for what I hear.

[@bluebear2941]

Gold mine

[@grimakastatik]

I see people using plastic bags and using vacuum sealers going crazy. How does this loose ammo method hold up?? I live in the south too

[@landrun89]

Ammo has been in the cans for 6 years still looks new!

[@grimakastatik]

landrun89 good to know. I bag out stuff for the range but I like it loose. I can store more rounds. Thanks for reply. What size are those packets you use?

[@landrun89]

the packets came with a bunch of mylar bags I bought for sealing up food storage. I got them off of ebay

[@danielhesse8600]

240p? what did you use to record this, a potato?

[@jesseterrell9354]

You don’t deserve 1080p

[@silvermediastudio]

Might try putting a desiccant bag both at the bottom and the top. For reasons (water is heavier than air).

[@ImNoBSING]

Water vapor is lighter than air, for reasons like clouds

[@silvermediastudio]

@@ImNoBSING Yep, and only having the desiccant at the top requires water vapor at the bottom to migrate through the entirety of the contents before it is absorbed. Water vapor also has a tendency to condense on cooler surfaces (like brass, because metals conduct heat better than air).

[@ImNoBSING]

I am sorry, what water vapor? The idea of desiccants is to draw any excess moisture from the rounds and once it is in equilibrium, only vast temperature differences would harm the ammo. I have 2 points: 1. You cannot put the desiccant in each round, where the fast temperature swing creates the real damage. 2. There is limited water inside unless you fail to close it properly. As long as the desiccant is not fully saturated, it will continue to draw and push moisture (keep humidity at the same level) when temperature changes slightly.

[@silvermediastudio]

@@ImNoBSING Stay in school.

[@ImNoBSING]

By not having anything to counter my arguments with, I assume you agree with me. You never quit school either! I sure feel like I am giving a class for somebody.

[@ilwv77m98]

Thank for the informative video. Though it is good to save space by having the ammo loose in the can i would think that it could also possibly damage the rounds. Please give any feedback if anyone has had any issues because of that.

[@Justonn]

Nah it wont. In the military it’s literally stored just like this. They have found ammo cans from the 50s and 60s and all the rounds still function today. If they re locked and sealed those rounds are safe. Long as water doesn’t get in it’ll be fine and this coming from a navy vet. Only thing sucks is if a fire breaks out in the house 😂. Those rounds could heat up and go everywhere

[@ilwv77m98]

@@Justonn Thank you for the info and Thank you for your Service!

[@benb5963]

i get 1350 rds of loose .223 in a can

[@landrun89]

Awesome I did not know 100% because I did not want to mix them thanks for the Information!

[@theiranjohnson6021]

how heavy the can is when its full?

[@landrun89]

@Emmanuel Goldstein I have .223 rifles and 5.56 rifles you cannot safely shoot 5.56 out of a .223. Because the 5.56 neck is longer they are not the same round

[@bigtrev761]

🇦🇺😎👍Interesting content

[@rogersharpe5783]

Some calibers are just estimate guess because the cans are NOT FULL🤪

[@grappler240]

Any data on .45 ACP?

[@landrun89]

No brother I would assume a 2 or 300 hundred less than the 9mm, I am not a .45 guy Sorry

[@grappler240]

Thanks for the reply, man.

[@ElTerrible666]

About 1100rnds if you pack them in baggies.

[@grappler240]

Noted. I bet it's heavy as hades too!!!!

[@4314832]

The last comment is correct but now 5 months later holy cow man..... check prices on gunbroker. .22 LR going for 18-20 cent per round right now

[@ravenarmer4313]

Ok... but can you move them if you need to. What if the only can you can get to is all 9mm and you have a 308 rifle and thats it? Or you have all your guns, but only one ammo can could be picked up. Mix your ammo so no matter what can you pick up you know you hace rounds for the gun you have.

[@landrun89]

I do keep 5 cans of mixed ammo that I have just for that reason, one in each vehicle and 3 at home, each has over 1200 rounds of everything mixed. This ammo is stuff I don't plan on shooting unless shit gets real. I have enough mixed ammo to give me a fighting chance to get back to these, or another stash I have at another location. I live 15 miles from the nearest small town, And 2 hours from any metropolis. I am pretty sure shtf won't start at my doorstep but you never know? The only ones I have trouble moving is the 9mm and .22LR they are heavy I do need to split them up. I also keep 1,000 rounds loaded in AR mags with 5 ARs at the ready. I also keep 5 loaded mags and an AR in the truck plus my carry pistol and mags at all times. The wife won't let me keep an AR in her vehicle unless we are going out of town!

[@guitaristguy20]
