I can find the regs circ 1998. with the rules about the proper storage box and such. the only thing i can find that's changed is up to 25kg in a dwelling (used to be 10kg) So are all the old regs gone?

Ya i got that. Im asking if since the new regs don't say you have to store it in a special box, doest that mean we don't have to anymore?
Used to say (along the lines of) must be in a at least 3/4 thick wood, removable box with the words "explosive" on it.

Just learned today that was the old requirement. No longer so.

It said nothing about 3/4" thick wood. It said something along the lines of not being metal and having non sparking hardware and being portable. The 3/4" wood was a suggestion. Mine was always stored in seperate plastic tool boxes marked as explosives. It still is. In the event of a fire they can be easily grabbed and removed from the area.

According to the Natural Resources site which states the following:

In a dwelling a person can store up to 5kg of smokeless powder if the containers are greater than 1kg
OR
In a dwelling a person can store up to 20kg of smokeless powder if the containers are less than 1kg

It also states that powders, caps, etc must be stored away from other flammable substances and ignition sources and people not authorized must not be given unlimited access.

Putting the above into perspective, I could store 44 one pound containers of smokeless powder in my dwelling. I must keep it away from other sources of ignition or flammable substances and lock it up.

I used the 1lb containers as an example because that's what I normally see for sale and buy.
