Hey all,

I'm saving to get into reloading later this year, but I have a few quick questions.

Where is the best place to keep powder and primers in the house?

Would storing them in a garage with temps in the 100s (read southern AZ) make any sense?

Or would in the house (a/c) be better?

Also, what primer should I be looking for to use on .38spl cases?

Thanks for all the help,
Familywgn

Store your powder and primers in a dark, cool location. If you're in Arizona I'd opt for the house (basement preferably) You'll want to use small pistol primers when loading .38 special.
