in another thread i stated that my red dot powder was sticking to my powder measure pan...and i thought that the pan surface had something on it that was causing the stick.
so i washed it in alcohol, aceton, naptha, laquer thinner, dawn soap, all to no avail.
anywhere between .01 grains to .03 grains each time ....if you tap the pan maybe some will come loose.
mostly not.
my conclusion is that there must be moisture of a minor degree in my powder (noticed some clumping as i was pouring it.)
so.... what do you people in the know think about a dry rice bag in with the powder? (in the jug)
or maybe a "desecant" bag in with the powder to dry it out?
i hit my pan with the wifes powder puff (non perfumed talcum powder) and that seems to help but only in the short term.
so what do you think about mixing a quarter thimble full of talc in a 8 pound jug of powder?
do you think that would that work?
or put a saltine cracker in with the powder?
anything to stop the clumping!
