    Different powders are more prone to sticking.

    I have powders that never stick to each other and others that always stick to each other.

    often you can add a little never stick to each other powder to always stick to each other powder to make it quit sticking. (you're likely to get a slight color change)

    Always shake off ALL the excess powder.

    Like WL said in another thread, timing is also important. you need to give the freshly baked PC a little time (15-45 seconds) after removing it from the oven before you do anything with it. YMMV

    So you have a tiny exposed spot of lead on your boolit. Think for a minute about how much bare lead goes down your bore with a boolit that only has lube in the lube groove???...….


    You are overthinking it. Shoot them. They will be just fine.
    The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
