I earthed my presses. Don't know if it made any noticeable difference although definitely less of that powder climbing the powder drop in my Hornady LNL Progressives. Ran a single wire from presses to a mangled steel target frame shoved into the soil at the back of the garage where I load.

Soooo, I earthed my steel topped bench to the steel garage frame yesterday. Later to be sure will earth the shed using a copper pipe in the ground.

Done, 1/2" copper pipe rammed down about 16" into ground. Should work fine.
