[QUOTE="Longtine88, post: 2648442, member: 116240"] So this morning went out to shop and realized I left 5 cases with powder in them and did not put a bullet in them. So I thought this is an opportunity to see how the moisture just over night affected the load. So I took 3 of them seated the bullets then took fresh powder and loaded 3 of same load. **** the ones exposed to moisture during the night and the group was 1.5” at 200 yards. So let it cool down to ambient temp which by the way was 30 degrees cooler than when I was shooting yesterday then shot the other three fresh ones at .44” at 200. I blame the coffee. But if you don’t think that keeping your powder fresh and away from moisture isn’t a big thing you should try that experiment. [/QUOTE]
