well let me ask you this Bob....since you are such an expert on the subject.
when you use the word "can".... can it result in pressures going out of site? So you don't believe that a case failure would happen long before a barrel/receiver would fail?
Wise guy: I have had it happen so I am "experienced" but not stupid because it happened once.
Yes pressures went out of site.
And I took precautions by reducing the load by 3 grains before the switch in bullets....it was not enough.
The case gave way, blew the primer,which of course is a case failure.
If I had not reduced the load by three grains do you suppose the action could have let go? I will leave that to you to speculate since you are such an expert. It certainly is not impossible.
BTW the perps were the 338 Win Mag, H205, 225 Hornady, Bitterroot and Nosler Partition in this particular case.
Not sure what your point is anyway.
