I switched to loose powder in 2020 and I love it. Sun I didn't take a shot and I put the ml in the safe with powder and bullet in but removed the primer. I was nervous about corrosion so tonight I pulled the breech and pushed the powder and bullet out. Big mess; the loose powder got all in the breech threads and grease. Curious how you guys recover loose powder or do you just take a shot and clean?
Lastly, I use loose 777 and how long is that safe to keep in the barrel if this happens again? Meaning if I don't get a shot, can I leave it loaded a week or more till next outing? There was 0 sign of any corrosion tonight after 3 days.
