I have been an insurance agent for 20 years. You will have no issues on a home inspection and the reloading supplies. I would not worry about it. As for coverage on your reloading equipment, it is covered as personal property with no specific value limits. If you have replacement cost ( make sure you do ) it will apply to the reloading stuff.
--Which is nice to hear since that's my insurance company....I actually asked my agent about the OPs question when I started reloading a few years back. I wanted to make sure there wasn't some other rider or extra fire coverage I needed. I get my insurance from State Farm. Their reply was that having the materials would have not change the outcome of a legitimate claim (ie - the materials needed to be stored properly) and there would be no additional coverage required.

Sounds like the primers should maybe be 25 feet away from the powder and gun-cleaning solvents and such.
