Pard, if you re-read, the powder was under a card wad to keep it in front of the primer thus creating a dead air space between the wad and the bullet. That turned the bullet from a projectile to a bore obstruction. No wad,no problem. If you must use a wad then you must have a filler. The very least that would happen is a ringed chamber. The worst was shown in the photo.
