Powder Storage

[NavyshooterM40]

I was planning on storing my powder in a metal container inside my storage shed. Any issue with powder being exposed to high temps?

High temps are not good and wide temp fluctuations are worse. I store mine in an old building in a unplugged refrigerator to keep them fluctuations at a minimum.

My closet on the floor. Makes up for my lack of shoes to trip over.

Metal, vented filing cabinet in my reloading room.

Refrigerator is good idea. With a chain lock. Actually, I believe fire codes prefer a plywood box with 1 inch walls to reduce fire danger. I would think a box like that with some 3/4 inch gypsum fire resistant wall board would be extremely safe. A "Weak Wall" is a good idea also. High temps are not good for powder. JMHO
