Shotgun shells can last for many years when stored properly, typically around 10 to 20 years. Factors such as temperature, humidity, and exposure to light can affect their lifespan. To ensure optimal performance, it's best to store them in a cool, dry place and check for any signs of damage or corrosion before use. Regular inspection and rotation of older shells can help maintain their reliability.

How many shotgun shells does it take to fill up the moon?

The moon is very big about 1/4 of the size of the Earth (it looks small because it is a long way away). The moon is also solid (like the Earth) and thus there is no room in it to be filled up with shotgun shells. If the moon was empty then you would have to turn 1/4 of the Earth into shotgun shells to fill the volume the Moon takes up.
