Bh 209?
This is the first year I've used BH 209.
We have a split season and I didn't shoot yet my TC Omega yet with 110 gr's Bh 209.
Our next season starts Dec. 1,2,3,4.
Will it hurt to leave it loaded--as far as corrosion goes will it hurt?
My barrel is S/S.
Thanks guys,
Jake

Pretty easy to change the load on an inline ML.
110gr of BH is pretty cheap.

I reload my rifle fresh every single day I go out in the woods. There is not way I would leave my rifle loaded overnight. So I definitley would not leave it loaded for an extended period of time.
I do not even bring my rifles inside the house, or put them in a gun case during hunting season if I am hunting the next day. Condensation can ruin your day. Tom.

I have done this on numerous occasions and have never had a problem. If it was loaded on a CLEAN barrel, it will be fine. It is the residue left after being fired that causes problems.

I've crossed the street thousands of times, and never got hit by a car. Does that mean it will never happen?
Never say never.

As i said, i have NEVER had a problem and untill i do, that is a true and correct statement. I didn't say it would never happen but, from what i have seen with this powder, it will not.
