I have kept Win. Black Talons in the truck for about two years and then test fired them and all was well. The opossum died, as they say. This is in Illinois, so it only gets up to about 95--150 in the cab. It is hard to keep oil in/on the auto.

Don't worry, they should last long enough to make it to the Central Texas shoot.

Down in Texas here, at my local gun store, the owner tells me that when ammo deliveries come off the delivery truck, they are so hot that they can put burn marks on the wood which he sets the ammo tins on in the back of his shop. Seems that the ammo gets shipped in big shipping containers and can sit in the hot sun for days. Reaching temperatures of God only knows how hot. Thus, your car ain't gonna do diddly squat compared to what the ammo has already been through.

Here in So. Calif. Los Angeles County, I left a thermometer that I use for doing A/C & refrig work in the car with the windows up during a sunny afternoon at around 3pm it hit between 150-160 F.

Ammo is fine. Guns are fine for the most part, just don't leave your glocks in the car.

I usually leave my gun in the car with no ill effects. When the summer temps hit triple digits, I take the mags indoors with me, just in case.

Remember, it's not the heat it's the humidity. Don't forget that they may start to rust (mine did) after a awhile.
