Back in the 70's my Dad worked up some loads for his 788 22-250 during the winter and we went out and shot it in the summer. After he shot it the bolt wouldn't open so we took it home and he tapped on the handle with a rubber mallet which broke the bolt handle off. He sent it in the Remington who fixed it and sent it back along with the case which had a cratered primer. He firmly believes in "extreme" powders now.
