Not Ranked
I used to sell fire "proof" safes. Make sure you get at very absolute least a 1/2 hour fire rating at 1200 degrees or higher. (Most important is for the internal temp to not exceed around 350 degrees for the burn period). One hour is much better, but usually quite a bit more expensive. I've seen house fires burn for hours and reduce documents/coins, etc. to ash in one hour rated safes! Also, how much space for long guns vs. shelf space is important as well. If it is not on the ground floor get a "drop rating" as well. It all adds up to money!
If it is primarily for theft protection, make it heavy and bolt it down.
