I have a 17 cal RCBS powder funnel that has a problem with the powder grains sticking (static elect.) to the side of the funnel. Any fix for this??

Wipe out with a dryer sheet like Bounce. Then a clean dry cloth. It should take care of your probleb.

........or, as the instructions for my lowly Lee powder drop
state for elimination of static electricity. When new, or after
a few months of non-use, there can be a problem with static
electricity. To eliminate this, pour the hopper full of powder
and just start throwing charges of powder into a container
until the hopper is empty. It worked! (It goes a lot faster to
set it for a 75gr max drop than for the 24.7gr used for my
Tactical 20, though!)

Todd, didn't you have a 218 Mashburn / Ruger #1 project you were putting together a year or so ago? Read a string below about a 218 B and the incredable velocity FH was gettng with Lil Gun and the strong Ruger action. Making me itch all over. Itching is a bad sign. That feeling is usually followed by a large outlay of money. Bill Cook

Hi guys,
Not sure how many Kimber did make, but the serial # on my bee is 118. Unlike my 17kr2, the bee has a very tight chamber. I even have to turn the necks. Did you guys have to turn necks for your Kimbers? Not complaining, I like it alot. Very nice rifle.
