I’ve been fortunate with 22’s stored for long periods. About 2005 (give or take a year), we “burned-up” 2 or 3 bricks of long rifles ( one brick was Winchester Wildcats, another was inexpensive Remingtons) purchased in the late ‘70’s/early ‘80’s. We may behave had a misfire......but, I can’t recall any! These cartridges spent the first 8 or 10 years of their life in the high humidity of South Louisiana prior to their move to Wyoming in ‘85! Maybe I’m just lucky! Should I go by a lottery ticket?
