I always assumed you needed climate controlled storage for primers and powder, but I've seen articles that say this isn't true. I've stored both in my gun safe in air-tight ammo boxes and I've seen articles that say they shouldn't be stored in those ammo boxes and primers and powder shouldn't be stored together. That leads me to the question of, "Where should I store it?"
I've removed it form the ammo boxes, but its still in my gun safe. I'm thinking of making a wooden storage cabinet out of the recommended 1" thick wood and putting it in my workshop. Now, the question becomes, do I need two cabinets, one for primers and another for powder, or can I use one cabinet for both if I keep them separate inside the cabinet?
