[QUOTE="longestrange, post: 2092231, member: 75265"] 3000 psi gas directly in front of a scuba tank valve will penetrate your skin and cause serious damage. Small 3000 psi hydraulic hose leaks will do the same, and can kill you quite dead. You are dealing with hot 60,000 psi gas here. Although there are various safeguards built into rifles, if it manages to find/break open a path to freedom you'll wind up in the hospital. I wouldn't even think about using that rifle or ammo without getting the problem diagnosed by a competent smith and would not trust just the guy who chambered it either. Nobody can sit here on the net and diagnose something like that, anything could be an issue. Edit: Just for reference, if you grip a revolver incorrectly it can and will cut your thumb off...
