  1. This is from my daughter: she says in the movie if memory is right is that the boy's

    elevator doesn't go to the top "floor". Just a tad slow on the draw!! It's been years

    since she has seen the movie. She say's not to quote her on it though...Dave

  2. Hi Rwims,Yes I do the vacuum thing with a food saver vac system..I like the food saver unit that I have cause I can control vac crush on packages. I also put in some dessicant bags, usually 1 or 2 of the 1" square ones. The ammo can last for a long time this way..I usually package them up in a 50rd single layer. It makes them easier to stack..Vac sealing them keeps the moisture and air out that can effect the powder,primers and even corrosion of your bullets and brass. I just looked at a package of 8x57 I sealed 2 years ago and they look like I just sealed them. I haven't shot any of them yet due to injury. But I don't see any reason why they wouldn't shoot just as good as just being loaded.....Dave

  3. Don't know about where to hide em, but as far as ammo goes, vacumm seal them with a food saver in 100rd lots. I have 50rd flip lid boxes vac sealed.. Keeps out moisture...Just my .0368 worth...Dave oh, I also put in some deccessent bags for good measure.
