@J, That question intrigued me as well so I went googling. It looks like the ammo would cook off just a bit above 300 degrees. Here is a link:

**J**,
I was wondering the same exact thing…I mean it would make sense …
Wouldn’t the fire make the ammo in the store cook off? Honestly asking as I don’t know.
Sorry for the fire,Awesome photos!
