    Reloading: House or Garage or

    What say you GS reloaders? Trying to decide where to put a press. If garage, Have you ever had any problems? What to watch for? Do's and Don'ts?

    In Houston, there is too much humidity in the garage. I would advise inside conditioned air.

        I tend to make a bit of a mess and spent primers are always everywhere so I do it in the garage. But I put in a dehumidifier to keep all my stuff from rusting.

          In my current home I load in my kitchen.

          I'm my home that I will be building next year, I am building a dedicated room in the garage that will be heated and cooled.

          I know lots of folks that load in their garage but they have to be diligent to keep rust off their equipment.

          I would not store powder or primers in an unconditioned space.

            I load in the garage. i'd love to do it in the house but I can't right now. When we buy our house next year sometime I'm building a separate workshop to run the business out of and and to I'll reload in there. It's going to be climate controlled. I don't store powder or primers outside though.

                I spray a corrosion prevention on a cloth and wipe it on there every now and then. Just so it has a slight film. I'm just careful not to get it anywhere where it could come in contact with the primers

                          Did it in the garage for a yr. Half of my dies ended ip with surface rust...nothing that hurt them but still I dont like it. Now in the house. Only complaint is the room has carpet and primers get everywhere will be putting wood floors in the man cave to make it easier

                            I live in an apartment. We have our press on a mobile bench, and we reload everywhere but the kitchen and the bathroom.
