This thread sounds like BS to me!
I heard from a gunsmith that testified in a court case once, when a dipstick bought 7mm Remington Magnum ammo because it was five dollars cheaper than the Weatherby stuff.
He then proceeded to blow the trigger guard off and split the stock. I think he got a sliver and decided to sue!
Anyhow the gunsmith testified that because of the excellent gas system of the Weatherby, (which directs gas down in a ruptured case situation) he didn't have a firing pin in his eye or something more serious than a sliver in his finger.
Rumors are for old women!

I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger!
There is only one kind of dead, but there are many different kinds of wounded.
