    Humidity and Reloading

    I reload on some humid days, I don't worry about it, your pouring out of dry sealed can into your powder measure, going right into the cases with a bullet on top. I don't think the amount of moisture collected will hurt anything, I'd say go to loading.:)

    Given RCBS reloading gear...need help

    look at the ends of the tube and see if they are split or if they have a plastic tip on them, use that end to pick up the primers, the other end should have a pin in it to keep them from falling out when you invert it. primers should be anvil down and the tube should grab them and hold, just...
