[QUOTE="Randy Tidwell, post: 1611086, member: 109136"] I have been reloading rifle ammo for over 50 years, Shotgun shells longer. I am constantly amazed at some of the practices by some that call themselves reloaders! That is one of the reasons I rarely go to a public range. I got into a heated debate with a couple guys on another web blogg site that thought it was perfectly fine to advise a guy to fire his rifle with a stuck case in the chamber. Apparently the guy was shooting a Marlin 30-30 and had to force the action closed on his reload, then thought better of it. Tried to open the action, couldn't extract the live round. Loaded the rifle up and took it home. Posted a note asking how to get the round out. These guys told him the 30-30 round did not have enough pressure to damage his Marlin, just shoot it..... HUH? On their advice, he took it back to the range and pulled the trigger...OMG How many safety issues to see in this chain of events? I still have all my fingers and plan on keeping them. [/QUOTE]
