[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 954561, member: 6452"] I reload more for waterfowl hunting than anything else. I have ended up will shells sitting in pockets full of water more times than I can count. I've never used sealant on the primer as they press fit so tightly and I have never had a dud round with my waterfowl loads. I am more concerned about the steel shot rusting in to a solid slug than the primer getting wet. If I were to go on a hunt like alaska I would take about 20 rounds and keep them in a plastic bag to stay dry. I doubt you'd get enough moisture in your gun to soak the primers. At the end of the hunt if it made you feel better just discard the 4 or 5 rounds you kept in your gun. The backup shells safe in plastic in your pack should be perfectly fine. [/QUOTE]
