Re: Primed cases
You will be fine. Just keep the cases in a dry place. I usually keep mine in my ammo boxes until i'm ready to load them.

Re: Primed cases
I do this all the time. It is not a problem at all. I typically reload in stages, so I don't always charge and seat bullets at the same time that I am priming.

Re: Primed cases
+1 no problems priming and letting them sit. I do basic case prep well in advance and then have only to size, drop the powder and seat the bullet for actual loading of ammo.
My .45acp used to sit primed and ready for months before I loaded it. I would prime the cases in mass bulk (1,000 or so a ta time).
I do the same for 7WSM, just not as many in the lots.

I'd say yu're no worse off if you store them under the same conditions as you store your unused primers.

Yep. I prime cases, put them in Frankfort Arsenal boxes and store them in the cabinet until use. Never had an issue.
