Two or three years ago I fired a severe overload through my .222 Rem. in a heavy barrel varmint. It was determined after the incident that it was an error on my part in reading the setting on the powder scale. It cost me about $350 Cdn. to get the damage repaired but I never even flinched at the price since I walked away with with only a couple of minor scratches and intact eyes. I was impressed with the way the gun handled the overload.
