[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1709214, member: 26227"] Since no one else has stated this; I will. you may have done everything thing right in reloading, correct powder, correct amount, primer, projo and there was no obstruction with the barrel. but if you bounced this set of rounds around in the range bag, in the heat, in the cold and basically bounced the powder around to dust or partially into dust without the protective layer of the chemicals that designate it's burn rate: this dust made from gun powder could have gone off like bullseye or red dot or some other1-4 fastest burn rate powder. I know this does happen.. I have seen this happen to a friend of mine up in Montana I was 3 feet from him when it happened. I was calling out wind and distance when "KABOOM!" no more Cooper 270 Winchester. the rest of the cartridges in the gun and the ones in his backpack the powder was dust under the projo. [/QUOTE]
