[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2603419, member: 75451"] Really glad that it was no worse than that…..potentially could have been ugly! Many years ago I was doing chrono work with my wife’s .338 WM and my 375 AI. When I touched-off a round in my AI…..it was quickly apparent that something wasn’t right. Recoil was near non-existent and my chronograph “came from untogether”! 😁 When I ejected the brass, it looked like my AI brass had separated at the shoulder. In a minor panic, I began trying to get the case remnants out of my chamber. Not having any success, and not being able to see anything, something told me to look more closely at the case …..it was the .338 WM. Other than the embarrassment, a destroyed chronograph, and a ruined brass…..no harm-no foul! 😁 memtb [/QUOTE]
