Smyth Busters: Can You Shoot Ammo That's Gotten Wet?
This video from Brownells Gun Techs™ debunks the myth that wet ammunition is unsafe to fire. Steve and Caleb explain that while some internet 'experts' advise against it, properly sealed ammunition, including military-grade and commercial metallic-cased ammo submerged for less than 24 hours, can typically be fired after thorough drying. They outline potential risks like misfires, 'pop and no kick' failures, or hangfires, emphasizing the importance of muzzle discipline. Shotshells are noted as being less waterproof. Ultimately, the video concludes that wet ammo is usable if dried correctly, busting the common misconception.
