Anyone else have a problem with Titegroup clinging to everything?  It seems to hang inside the powder measure as well as within the drop tube.  It's even difficult to weigh it once it's in the shell as it won't come out.  Switching powders is going to be a PITA.  Any tips or tricks would be appreciated.

Dryer sheets. Wipe everything down good with them. Flake powders love to stick to stuff with even the smallest amount of static.

A little bit. The dryer sheets will help a lot. I haven't actually had any problem with TG coming out of the case, though.

You are a victim of static electricity.

Might have to do several dryer sheet wipe downs, inside and outside of your PM. It will get better with every wipe down.

Rubber band a dryer sheet to the outside of your bottle of TiteGroup.

I have a bottle of Power Pistol that I had to do this to.

It's that time of year.

If you think tightgroup is bad try wst.  I quit using it for anything but 12g

Here's a pic of my bottle of Power Pistol with the dryer sheet rubber banded to the bottle.

An alternative to dryer sheets is static spray for monitors.

Notice in the background, my powder measure has a dryer sheet in the hopper when not in use.

I had the same problem. A  dryer sheet helped a lot. I also put a humidifier in the room which seemed to help.

I have a shop rag I keep sprayed with Static Guard Spray. It works even after it dries and seems to work better and longer than the dryer sheets. The rag doesn't snag on every rough surface like the dryer sheets either. I hate static.
