I am wanting info specifically for a bug-out bag to be kept in our autos.

Oh yeah, I also am curious about “shelf life” of ammo stored in extremely hot and humid autos.

Sealed ammo boxs with desiccant packs (A desiccant is a hygroscopic substance that induces or sustains a state of dryness)

The flash point for gunpowder is something north of 350 degrees and the hottest car on the hottest day is internally 180 degrees or lower. Or something close to that.

Takeaway: ammo is safe to store in hot cars.
