I assume that's so they don't get lost....Blaze orange electrical tape...
You do realize every major name in reloading makes a reloader for muzzleloaders made of plastic don’t you, I don’t think they would if they regularly exploded from static electricity, I personally use a hollow antler myself though.Another "modern" trinket in a traditional forum. Also, powder can be set off by static electricity, perfect combination with vinyl tubing. I would retire those and move on.

Ok, but it takes heat to ignite black powder, still not a problem.There are many different types of plastic. Some are anti-static and some can produce enough static electricity to knock you on your butt. PVC pipe is a good example of such.
On the contrary, BP absolutely can be ignited by static electricity using such a device as the one mentioned in the post. Doesn't just require heat, I've seen it first hand and the results were less than steller. Thankfully the individual didn't loose any fingers. These vinyl loaders can absolutely generate enough energy while bouncing around in a bag or loose clothing to go boom.
Prime example of needing to understand what one is doing. BP without a doubt is a volatile substance and it's properties should be understood and respected before storing it in just any container.
I can see where a diehard HC person would get tired of seeing non HC accoutrements on the forum but I just see them as someone getting into the hobby and starting to explore different options for doing this or that, the OPs next project may very well be a horn or antler measure, I started with a cva brass dispenser and measure, I use a powder horn and antler measure now, weather it fits into a certain HC category I have no idea, nor do I care to research it, I’m happy with it and that’s all that matters to me actually, I will say that calling someone’s project junk is doing nothing to sway someone towards being more HC, constructive criticism is one thing, outright insults are not very constructive at all.Not trying to be negative but the modern junk contained within the traditional forum gets annoying and old...
Well I guess I stand corrected then, “modern trinket” were the words you chose, all the difference in the world.Didn't call his creation junk at all. If some want to take my post as an indirect insult so be it then.
I believe I for one read it correctly without having to see any emotion, junk and trinket are pretty self explanatory without expression.Words are like weapons unfortunately. With no emotions attached the reader can interpret it as they wish, downside to conversation through cyberspace.
