Question about shell inserts and storage

I’m in the process of building a 3” shell with Salute inserts, Im not planning on lighting it until a week after it’s completed but I’m pretty hesitant about storing flash, I keep everything in fireproof airtight containers so maybe I’m overthinking it but I want to know how safe it is. For the salutes I’m Thinking of either using a 50/40/10 KNO3/MgAl/S or standard 70/30 Perc/Al. I’ve heard moisture and nitrate flash never age well but I’ve also heard that Perc/Al is much more sensitive. I usually stick to Black powder and stars kinda builds and even though I’ve worked with flash a few times before, I still don’t have a ton of experience with it and want to see what yall would have to say. Any help is appreciated-thanks

Shell inserts and storage

I’m in the process of building a 3” shell with 6 Salute inserts and C6 Ti star rings. Im not planning on lighting it until about week after it’s completed but I’m pretty hesitant about storing flash, I keep everything in fireproof airtight containers so maybe I’m overthinking it but I want to know how safe it is.
