[QUOTE="quigley257, post: 2903922, member: 84442"] The customer will remain anonymous, but this is the result of mistakenly loading IMR4198 into a 300WSM while thinking he was loading IMR4350, which both have brown labels. This is a prime reason that I am not a fan of the new Western and Accurate Powder labels which are all identical except for the powder number. We have some of the strongest actions in the industry as proven by destruction testing to failure. The bolt was set back into the receiver lug abutments so hard that it left imprints. The barrel swelled in the receiver so badly that we had to cut it off forward of the recoil lug and then machine out the barrel tenon. This fellow was lucky to say the least. 😲 [ATTACH type="full" alt="Over Pressure 1.jpg"]494118[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="Over Pressure 2.jpg"]494119[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="Over Pressure 3.jpg"]494120[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
