[QUOTE="Rosebud, post: 2634831, member: 118066"] In 1981 A friend was gearing up for elk hunt in Colorado and loading a 300 win mag. He had been loading a 44 mag prior to this and had a dust up with his teenage daughter, yep they we're problems then also. he returned to loading bench and loaded up 300 win mags. Next day at the range he cranked off one of the 180 Hornadys and the stock split and bolt froze up. It was loaded up with stout load of 2400. Only reason he kept all his body parts is because of the rifle he was shooting. A Colt/Sauer from Germany. No local gun Smith could get the bolt out and it was returned to Germany. Months later it was returned with a letter stating congratulations on owning on of the best built rifles on earth, and refrain from reloading your own ammo in the future. They couldn't get the bolt out either. [/QUOTE]
