Some people think even carrying a flask is dangerous.

I load from a flask, into a cold gun/cylinder that hasn't been fired.

I load from a brass measure from a flask after that.

If I'm at the range, I take my Hornady BP thrower, and dunk each cylinder in water between sessions to insure it's cold and load it under the thrower into each chamber- much, much faster. I've never had a misfire due to water droplets either.
