Do you use sealer or moisture sealer on your reloads?

[QUOTE="del2les, post: 2511106, member: 9299"] On a few loads, I have used finger nail polish on the primer edges (applied with a tooth pick), and I have experimented with Camp Dry sprayed on the primer and base. Most of these were either specific handgun rounds, some hunting ammo for wet weather hunting in humid and rainy areas, and some shot shell reloads for duck hunting. The shot shells also had a thin application of paraffin to the closure of the crimp. Even without sealants, I can only think of two times I had a load that failed due to rain and moisture, and one of those was a muzzle loader in an all day rain. I solved that by applying a thin coat of wax around the nipple prior to capping. ( a friend once used a very thin piece of kitchen plastic sandwich wrap over his nipple and cap) The other was a reloaded shot shell that I had dropped in the water and placed back in my vest pocket. Later that day, I tried it, and it failed. [/QUOTE]
