reloading Static free powder funnel

[Grunt67]

Had been having problems with static electricity, in my funnel with CFE powder. Tried different things/suggestions, some helped for a while,

always returned. Got to prowling on the 'net, & found an aluminum funnel that is static free. It's also caliber specific ( only fits one caliber).

I ordered one for my 9MM, it works like a charm....no more static, plus, it sits on the mouth of the case, don't have to hold it up.

Ordered from Brownells, about $12 = S/H. Worth it.

Some of you guys may already be aware of this , but this is for some of the newbees, that may be having the same issue.

I use this one, haven't had static issues yet, but I keep dryer sheets handy just in case.

I've tried dryer sheets, never worked for long for me. I even ended up rolling up a post-it note

for a funnel for a while. Works, but unhandy, LOL.

For years I used a Lee powder funnel, the one that came with the anniversary kit.  I liked it because it worked with all calibers, but static was an issue.  The dryer sheet was helpful with the ball powders, and flake, but the flake wasn't as bad.  I loaded a couple hundred at a time then and only wiped it down a couple times a session. The RCBS powder funnel I got was for convenience,  I drop directly into it and then into the case, and it works with most calibers.  So far this is working good, even with the W296/H110 I use for my 300Blk.

I think I use an RCBS with my Chargemaster. I only use a funnel when I'm doing precise loads. So, it's either stick or ball powder. Never a static problem. All my blaster stuff is done on a turret press with a Lee auto disk in the 2 hole.

I would but that aluminum funnel in a second if it wasn't caliber specific. I would need four or five of them

That can be an issue. Right now I'm loading quite a few 9mm, so I can justify it. It really works a heck of a lot better.......for me anyway, LOL

Here's how I avoid the funnel...
