How long do you keep ammo before you deem it "to old to safely fire"? I normally don't have ammo on my shelf to long since I try to get to the range every other weekend however I have a couple of my guns which are not in the rotation so the ammo sits. I have a box of .22 short that is from 2008. Is this still safe to fire? I remember in the old days my father saying three years is the cut off. I store my ammo in my safe in my basement which stays pretty moderate temp and humidity wise. Any input would be appreciated! Thanks!
