Discharging static from drop tube

[SDHNTR]

I am loading some very slightly compressed. Varget loads in 308. My Forster drop tube is giving me grief with static. I can’t get it to cleanly drain. Any ideas?

Haven't used it in this application but I use static guard spray on my chargemaster and it works great

I rub the inside of my powder tube and metal surfaces with a dryer sheet. Works well and makes your ammo smell great too!

Ha ha. Great tip. Thanks.

I'll use powdered graphite on the inside of any parts that are giving me grief with static. Just dump some in, swirl it around to provide a very thin coat on the inside, then dump out the excess.

dryer sheets have worked great for me. If I'm dropping charges I'll even stick a strip in the powder bottle/hopper. Darn near essential for me when shotgun reloading
