This is a really good point. Hiding stuff in ammo boxes, or other
large metal containers, doesn't seem like such a good plan. I'd sure
hate to be the one the law enforcement contacts wondering what the
heck I was thinking.

I was under the impression, our intent to be as conservative as
possible to the surrounds we place our boxes in? That doesn't sound
like using metal or large containers. I'm also in favor of regular
checking of boxes and if you can't, either getting someone else to or
retiring the box all together.

want my kids to open an amo box they find in the woods. There is too
much weirdness in the world. I also wouldn't worry about how long the
boxes will last. I think the forest will be gone long before the
boxes if we don't do more about it.
