warrior23 Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 I've tried the anti static dryer sheets but no luck the powder keeps sticking to the powder check what can I do ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.40AET Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Try buying a cheap cool mist room humidifier and running it in your reloading area. They run 20 bucks at Wall Mart or Target. Raising the humidity should eliminate the static electricity. Don't run it constantly, the air may get saturated and the powder may clump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillon Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 Another option would be to ground the machine. remove some of the paint under a mounting bolt, and run a copper wire from there to a nail stuck in the ground, or to a water pipe or electrical ground. You could also try to rinse the powder measure hopper in soapy water, and let it air dry. this will also remove static. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zak Smith Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I was having this problem when I just got my .40 conversion set up. I sprayed the plunger down with Oneshot and the powder stopped sticking. -z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
