Can you alternate - bolt open & bolt closed or bolt no bolt?
Shop I frequent stores all his guns in safes every night. His process / order for storing the bolt guns is rifle with a bolt then rifle without a bolt. AKA - Bolt - No Bolt.
I used a Cheap Homak metal gun locker for the longest time before buying my Liberty. I had some muzzle up and some muzzle down. Pretty wood stocked long guns were stored in gun socks to protect their finish.
If your goal is fire protection w/ your safe - you really need to get the ammo out of there. Get a cheap gun locker to store it in.
In the Ozarks where I live, the joke amongst the volunteer fire department is... they never lost a whole tract of land to a fire.
Sure everything was burned to a crisp but the land was still there.
Suburbia - with a good full time Fire Department - your guns might have a chance of surviving a fire separated from ammo.
