[QUOTE="SSgt G Cody, post: 2359329, member: 113303"] PDShitr, Thank you for your great wisdom! You're right, mine is an opinion, but that's what was asked for! Rem 700, 270, IMR4350, possibly trickler 4198, several other unfired reloads left. I would assume all reloads were the same, and probably loaded by the shooter, or a friend. The one thing I know of that could probably cause this blown-out case, among other similar reloads, would be for one case to have bullet loaded extra long, jammed into lands, and fired! I saw this condition once before in a 338 WM Win Model 70. Bullet was loaded very long, and forced into lands by bolt, ... then fired! Case base jammed into bolt face, and bolt was very difficult to open! Later magnaflux showed cracks around bolt face! Shooter was very lucky action didn't explode! Next time we need a Sherlock Holmes to solve our quest for truth on any ballistic issue, it's good to know we can call on your trusted judgement! [/QUOTE]
