[QUOTE="5.56×250, post: 1752867, member: 110162"] Speaking of 45 70s, a customer that use to come in the store I worked for had just started reloading and ,( im going from memory on powder nominclatures) exchanged accurate 17 for reloder 17 (?) In a mutual friends limited edition browning falling block 32" barrelled buffalo gun . He exchanged a slow burning rifle powered for 10mm auto powder ! A full charge too. Unknown to our gun owner they went to the local range to test loads. When he ( the gun owner) touched off the first round he blacked out and woke up laying on the ground behind the bench .The charge erased the numbers and letters from the case head and the primer flowed to the point the case head looked like a smooth flat piece of brass ! Other than a black and blue shoulder, the shooter was ok, and believe it or not, the browning falling block was none the worse for wear either. The scariest part was the marlin lever gun in 45 70 that was laying on the bench to be tested next with the 10mm powdered loads ! I doubt there would have been any hope for the marlin staying together .. Sorry guys, subject shift, but had to share that pressure story. [/QUOTE]
