Would be more efficient to use Sterilite 6 QT plastic shoe boxes, .97 at Walmart/Home Depot/Target.
Buy some desiccant packets and VCI paper from Amazon and toss in each plastic box, that is how I store my 20's. ETA, the 20's fit nicely cross ways, just the right amount of space. |

10 fit very conveniently in the small Plano ammo cans.
More will fit but 10 stack vertically and it's easy to see if loaded and easy to move in and out. I don't see the point of plastic bags unless you're just trying to keep them pristine |

Amazon has bags, but I prefer cling wrap.

What is the purpose of the ziplock baggy?
If worried about protecting the finish then there are cheaper things to use. If you want airtight storage I would get the vacumn sealer out of the kitchen and use that. Protect sharp edges so they don't poke holes in the bag. I store mags in ammo cans for the most part to keep them contained, make em easier to move, and the ammo can protects them vs just having a stack on a shelf that the cat decides needs knocked over. |

Long term storage, I would be worried of moisture in a zip-loc.
Stack em in an ammo box or like mentioned above a shoe box, if you are wanting to protect the finish put wrapping paper between them. |

I buy ziploc bags on eBay for organizing small parts. I bought some of these larger ones recently for storing 30-round magazines:
100 4"x10" small reclosable ziplock bags 4mil HEAVYDUTY I’m sure they have shorter ones that would work for 20-rounders. I store GI mags in them to keep them from banging around when we move every few years. I’m not concerned about moisture. Most of the mags I buy new come that way, and the used ones I buy get cleaned up with Slip2000 before testing, so they’re lightly lubed. |

Sorry about that - something lost in translation from the eBay app. I fixed it.

Just depends on how many you have. For long storage I keep my 20/30s separated in two full USGI wooden footlockers.
