[QUOTE="Innovative, post: 242047, member: 527"] MagnumManiac ........ I agree. It's definitely not a hangfire or a delayed ignition. However, "delayed detonation" happens when a full powder charge doesn't ignite properly. As the primer fires, SOME of the powder detonates and pressure builds inside the case. As the powder burns, if flows forward and some of it doesn't ignite (for about nanosecond). During this delay the chamber pressure is slightly reduced. When the rest of the powder reignites in the barrel, the pressure spikes upward again and blows back towards the case (that is no longer completely sealed). The whole chamber is then resealed from the secondary explosion, but not before blowing back between the case and the chamber wall. (This could also be a good sign to use magnum primers if not already using them. You could also switch to a powder that is easier to ignite.) - Innovative [/QUOTE]
