    I have a story for you, Scott.
    Several years ago I worked in a gunstore, I met a lot of interesting people and heard a lot of stories.
    One day, one of our regulars comes in, all bandaged up, it looked pretty crazy. His story, however, was even more crazy.
    He explained he and one of his buddies had been out shooting on a field, he was using his old Winchester model 70, chambered in .270win.
    His buddy brought a rifle chambered in .308, by now you're probably catching on as to what happened that evening.
    Somehow their ammo had gotten mixed up, and he grabs a round, puts it in his rifle and chambers it.
    The .308 goes right into the chamber of his Winchester Model 70 which was chambered for .270.
    He pulls the trigger and the rifle goes boom.
    Barrel went flying down range, the scope slammed right into his forehead, the left side of the receiver went into his forearm and the rest of the rifle went everywhere else.
    The man calmly explained how he really liked that rifle, and if at all possible, would love to buy another model 70 if we had one.
    He was truly an interesting man, it's honestly people like him that made the hassle of retail work worth it.

    Rather than just using the safety, perhaps it would be even safer to insert the hot load as the 2nd round in the mag, so even if it "just goes off" when you take the safety off, only a normal round would fire. Only problem is you'd have to set up your string to work multiple times in a row. Just a thought

    I know grant given it's a hot round versus a squib load, but still knowing what would happen when using a rifle that has a catastrophic failure is important for me. As a Marine, I learned firearm safety not in just handling but remedial actions, which includes knowing when there's a squib load. That being said, it's kinda unavoidable if you happen to have that one hot round. Thank you for posting this one!

  • @KiithnarasAshaa
    @KiithnarasAshaa Рік тому +77

    This series has highlighted that it is not just the chamber pressure alone that determines the _severity_ of an overpressure event - it's also the total energy of that overpressure event; The comparatively dinky 5.56 still did substantial damage to the weapon and surroundings even though the test subject fared quite reasonably. Similar was true of the pistol detonations. By comparison, .50 BMG is packing _significant_ energy, as Scott knows first-hand.

      Actually had one of these last year. Totally my fault. After reloading thousands of round over the years, I made the mistake of dumping my powder thrower into the wrong bottle. Yes, I added pistol powder to my rifle bottle. Thank God only the upper & bolt assembly were trashed. By design, I’ve only have one powder out at a time, but obviously screwed up here. Hopefully, my mistake will help others to avoid a similar fate.

    I once managed to have a 300blk go off in a 5.56 upper. All the pressure went out the mag well as well, after first splitting the bottom of the bolt carrier. The upper came out completely unscathed and is still perfectly functional. The lower got a slight bow to the mag well but also works just fine. I did get a cool looking copper tube heat formed to the neck of what was left of the case. The lead core of the bullet shot out the barrel and left the jacket 😂

      Some of the guns that were overbuilt to high extent might even survive any possible overpressure rounds you can make using any smokeless powder-based stuff but I would love to see it anyway!
      I used to have an old Forehand&Wadsworth D/A #32 revolver in .32 rimfire and believe it or not but I ended up increasing the load all the way to maximum pressure possible in it's caliber by filling it's whole case capacity with the PETN-laced super-fine and really fast burning smokeless powder and the gun survived even that!So the barrel was just 2.5" and the bullet weight was 100 grains;the bore diameter .316" and case length .800" so basically the round was dimensionally identical to .32 S&W long and the muzzle velocity reached a whopping 2130 fps!So the damn .32 snub nose revolver ended up producing over 1000 fpe which is by the way exactly the same energy as the full sized (18" barrel) AK-74 rifle with ball ammo in 5,45×39mm! Just imagine the recoil by the way: the little sucker kicked like a good .44 magnum should feel!

      There is no casual increments involved here.
      Even in a .223 barrel alot of loads top out at 100% case capacity so if we assume 100% case capacity is max 55k pressure in order to create a 550k psi round you would have to literally compress the powder into a solid and fit 5-10 times more powder than 100% case capacity. Actually I take that back, I don't even think it's possible with the fastest rifle powders meant for .223 and ya he even said it's a squib so I'd bet that round wasn't even capable of blowing up the gun without the obstruction.

    I've seen a couple of catastrophic failures with the AR, the inherent design directs the great majority of the blast into the BCG and down the magwell. Pretty much destroys the small parts leaving the lower repairable. In the two incidents I witnessed, no harm to the shooter, no forearm damage, no hand damage, nothing came back into the face. These were normal rounds, failure was determined to be a headspace issue. Those were pretty small blasts compared to your "test".😂

    Hey Scott, With that much force going downward, I imagine it would set off any rounds if they were loaded in the mag. That would be interesting to experiment with if you wanted to retry this again! Thanks for being safe and have a great day!

  • @Alfs_Armory
    @Alfs_Armory Рік тому +21

    My theory is that the destruction occurred primarily downward and laterally due to the bolt being locked into the receiver extension and the squib not allowing gas to get to the gas tube to unlock it. This setup needs to be done twice more. Once with a clear bore, to see if the gas system would prevent some of the damage and once with the lugs shaved off the bolt.

      @KimballPrecisionRifles Рік тому

      500,000 psi is way too much pressure. The bolt would likely not have unlocked before the whole gun exploded anyways, like seen. The pressure is way too high, and way too fast. The powder being used for these loads is waaaay faster than a normal rifle powder, so the pressure builds up incredibly fast. It would explode before the bullet has even moved down the barrel much.

      Federal loaded 1 powder charge, 1. Bullet, ANOTHER powder charge and another bullet! (The loading machine did that several times) so my uncle had 2 or 3 more OOPS bullets.
      Federal bought him a brand new rifle. -- I have read in the 90s and 90s they had LOTS that were over pressured... MOST hunters I know won't buy Federal to this day fir this.
