No, not mine. I visually check each case charge.

This pic was on root66's site, with the 'quick-change' Luger barrel. No other .44 pics; I'm guessing this is one of those pics that get passed around among the gun community for years...

Only 'problem' I've ever had with loads was shooting in the Winter and the case lands in the snow...Even though it lies in a heated basement for a couple day, the melted snow inside the case didn't evaporate...There was maybe only a drop or so but I didn't notice it and it was enough to soak the powder..."Click, phht"...Out comes the squib rod!

Now I shoot indoors.
