Does it hurt to leave primed brass in the loading blocks for a few days? Thanks again

No. Throw a towel over the cases to keep dust, bugs, and other trash out.

Had some .357 brass I primed in 2003. Ran out of bullets at the time so I put them in a zip lock bag and put them in the storage bin.

Just recently loaded them up, no problems with them.

I store primed brass in freezer bags. I have like six 1-gallon freezer bags full of primed rifle brass. I put a little desi pack in each freezer bag just as a precaution.

I occasionally do some small (50-100) loadings and drop the powder in the cases. If I call it a night before seating the bullets I stack the loading blocks. They are the Frankford Arsenal brand, and they have a coated cardboard backing with info printed on it. I put an empty block on top of the uppermost block full of cases and lay a book on it. The weight should seal the case mouths, IMO.

I do this inside in a heated/AC room, not in the garage. No utes in the house.

I have any number of coffee cans full of primed brass, as well as some .50 cal cans.

I have like 2500 rounds of 5.56 primed and ready, and 500 308 primed and ready.
