[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1381447, member: 13632"] The only injuries I've seen from a blown case have all been in Rems when the bolt nose blows out and down the race way into your face, usually the bottom metal gets blown off also. A Savage there's just a puff out the holes as pressure drops so fast and the raceway is blocked, drill out the ejector that will be rammed to the bottom, I've never seen any metal come out of them, Winchester usually you get a puff, extract the case, clean the primer punch out out of the bolt. All actions handle it different, the Rem is the only one that unnerves me as I have had parts of one go through my face and I've seen quite a few cracked and broken bolt noses. [/QUOTE]
