    If you have more than 25 lbs but less than 50, make a wooden magazine.
    Or, put it in separate boxes and put it in different parts of the car.

    Safety check your vehicle. Obey the speed and traffic laws.

    I would use a rental truck and tow the second vehicle.Along with guns I would put all my tools and toolboxes in the same truck. Use a padlock on the truck. Put the guns,safes and such in first and cover it with normal household furniture. Make sure the truck is full. If some one pulls you over, they will not know the bulk of your household furniture is in another truck. It will appear that you are moving in just one truck and the truck is full of normal stuff.

    I moved this summer with less than 25 lbs of powder and a few thousand primers. Separated primers and powder between ammo cans and locked em up. I locked my guns up in Plano cases (cheap ones form Bass Pro) and I was complaint with NY law (where I moved....not by choice) Of course my pistols cold not come with as I didn't have the NY permit.

    SciFiJim - I bet you are gonna miss those apricot trees in your back yard. I am sure you won't miss the air quality problems and CA issues in general. Glad you found a new spot to call home.

    We escaped CA two years ago to move to VA. Loaded guns, powder, ammo and primers plus tools and work benches in a UHaul with a car on a trailer had wife follow in my truck. Took 5 days and drove through free states once we hit the AZ border. We moved in and a few neighbors helped move my stuff into the house and garage and commented on how little I had (about 2 tons). Then I knew it was a great move. Now those who I left behind are asking about moving to VA. Lower taxes, gun shops all over, 3 ranges within 30 minutes, shall issue CHP makes it a very nice place to retire to plus grand kids are close.

    Well, it's taken us quite awhile to get rid of many of the remnants of when we were occupied by the Yankee oppressors after the War of Northern Aggression.

    Pack your guns so they won't get dinged. Pack the powder and primers where they are safe from fire and load your truck. Don't speed and obey other traffic laws. In two or three days, welcome to TN.
    To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, the trouble with many shooting experts is not that they're ignorant; its just that they know so much that isn't so.
