Dude…

Saw this on a Reddit board asking if this was over-pressure. Just shook my head. They WERE 223 brass…

Not dogging the guy, only sharing for entertainment purposes.

Pissin hawt

Not over pressure, just under supported.

By the imprints the extractor and ejector was doing a mighty fine job

Perhaps he likes proofing barrels in his spare time

Dayum...is the upper is intact?

 

[bgcatty]

Did the rifle explode?
Maybe the guy needs a reloading class?

I find it interesting that the primers were still dimpled, sort of. With that kind of impression of the bolt face parts I would expect them to be flat or blown out. The one is completely gone but just wow!

I’ve got some Turkish 8mm that will split the tops and somewhat flatten a primer but DAMN!!!! That powder is pushing out the bullet before the primer is hit!

OMG is all I have to say......but I will silently wonder if he has all fingers

Personally chrono'd that stuff at over 3,000 fps. It's wild. Freaking hilarious to shoot though. What an earsplitting sonic crack.

That backed out primer scares me.. I need a another new emotional support gun now..

My wife says the same thing.

I'd love to know the pressure and velocity where that happens.



I suppose I should add that once upon a time I thought it would be fun to hotrod 9mm though a hi power. After a couple rounds of 30% overcharge my pistol jammed from ejected primers making their way into the rest of the gun. Decided to stop and go home while I was still in tact.


Bonus interesting pic from my experiments with that pistol.

Sure, it was the barrel that hit the target, but other than that it’s fine!

Isn't your OAL on this loading pushing things a bit?

Frank Drebin : Oh, I can't keep up with him, mine hurt especially on the long ones. I can't seem to straighten it out, it has no feeling, it's... it's kind of numb. I may have yanked it too much, maybe.

Jealous. If you can get one to stop at the end like that, your next shot will have two chances to hit your target!
