Not a good idea.
You should send it to me.
I've got a nice cool dry storage area.
Heh, heh, heh ... (oh, sorry, you weren't supposed to hear the evil cackle!)

All that would happen is the cases might rupture if they got hot enough to ignite the powder. There will be no flying bullets. This was proven rather conclusively my MythBusters a couple of years ago.

I still wouldn't store that much ammo in my trunk, though.

Hmm depends on the city you live in. What city in MI is that? And what might the make and color of your car be... hehe just kidding

I think since you have ammo stored at both locations, as your wife pointed out, it isn't really necessary to take the eatra along, unless your replenishing your supply.

1. You are paying too much for ammo if its worth is $150
2. Ammo goes boom during a fire, that's it. No flying bullets, just boom.
3. I wouldn't worry about it. If its in an ammo box in the trunk, it'll last a long time like that.

I do not see a problem with storing ammo in trunk.

I keep some extra ammo for my EDC and rifle in my truck, in a bug out bag, just in case. I may be out and decide to go to the range or if the SHTF, 200 rounds for my EDC and 200 rounds for the rifle may come in handy.
I also keep some water, energy bars, first-aid kit, flashlight and a poncho with liner, but that is just me. I would rather have the stuff and never need it, then need it and not have it.

Yes, I do rotate the stuff in the bug out bag.

Most likely more than $150, as it includes two boxes os SD ammo. .357 Sig.

Your safe as a CC permit holder, but the laws are a little confusing in MI when it comes to the transportation of firearms, and I'm guessing the wife is picking up on some of the stories we have heard at the range, when you run into a LE who does not fully understand the law. Besides, the police you are likely to encounter in the UP will be more aware of relevant laws.

The only thing I store in my are the car chargers for the cell and GPS (GPS goes with me when I get out of the car) insulated shopping bags from Sam's Club and take out menus from my favorite restaurants. There may be tire gage in the glove box, but that's it. There is nothing in my car with my address on it either, not even a piece of junk mail.

So, storing 350 rounds of ammo would be out of the question.

I don't see anything wrong with keeping 350 rounds in the car provided you are OK with the risk of it being broken into. I am fortunate that I live in a decent town and my daily travels do not put me in areas where I am overly concerned about vehicle breakins. I've never had a car broken into and have been driving for almost 27 years. With that said, I am sure I will be broken into before the end of the week.

I do, however, completely understand those of you who never leave anything of value in your vehicle. It's all about evaluating risks.

Bottom line is I have evaluated the risks and losing $150 in ammo with a vehicle breakin would be the least of my concerns. I would be more upset about how many times I will have to go into Wal-Mart to replace the stolen ammo.
