Well, if he did take one like that on, it's a lock that the bad guy is hating life about now!
A short update on my soaked vinyl tubes mentioned earlier in the thread. After pouring the powder out when I initially checked for moisture I put it right back into the tube and put the ball back in, too. Whatever state the powder was in should have been maintained. I loaded and shot them the other day. I couldn't tell any difference in the powder consistancy, not clumped up or anything. The three chambers those loads were in fired without any hanging fire but were definately less powerful than the same charge in the other three chambers. Just a guess but it felt like about a 15-20 grain charge instead of the 30 grains it was. Apparently total immersion for 24 hours results in some wetting of the powder but doesn't make it totally inert.
