Hello,
After a 6 year absence I want to start relaoding again. My problem is space to be honest, as in I don't have enough. I've been looking at my shed to the side of my home a lot lately. It has a workbench and I could put up some shelves and the like. My only fear is of storing all the components, powders, primers, bullets, press, scales, etc., in an outdoor enviroment. This shed is not heated nor does it have a/c.
The shed is well constructed and weather tight, allthough it is by no means a sealed enviroment. Would being outside cause any problems with the above listed components as in rusting of metals, fouling of powders and primers, or any other numerous items. The temperature spreads here can be in the 100's in the summer and -20 in the winter.
My only other option is to build a bench down in the basement near where I do all gun related work. The maximum size this could be is 19" deep by 4 to 5 feet long with some space for shelving above and below. I really dont want to try and use my "gun" bench for reloading also as it is cramped enough already.
Thanks.
