    .22 Ammo In Sub Zero Temps

    My mom has some .22 ammunition that she left in a shed in -20 degree temperature for a few days. Would that ammo still be okay to use?

    Yes. The temps were much colder than that during the Winter War and in WWII in the winter on the Eastern Front and the Finns, Russians, and Germans had no issue with their ammo that was exposed to temperatures of -40 and lower for long periods of time. They even shot the ammo at those temperatures.

    War does not stop for bad weather.
    Anyone can look around and see the damage to the state and country inflicted by bad politicians.

    A vote is clearly much more dangerous than a gun.

    Why advocate restrictions on one right (voting) without comparable restrictions on another (self defense) (or, why not say 'Be a U.S. citizen' as the requirement for CCW)?

      It's fine. Treat it as you would any other ammo.
