... loading black powder ammunition is dangerous!

Just think of all the people who might have been KILLED if he was using IMR to do his reloading ... /s

Reads nicely with “explodes”.

I didn’t click on it, but it’s a very popular misconception that ammo EXPLODES.

I guess if you had many tons of it, you might get that, but without the pressure being confined to a sturdy chamber, most individual rounds cook off in a pretty benign way.

It’s not like it takes off at 3,000 feet per second.

Ah, okay.

I stand corrected —sorry I went too fast.

I hate when my ammo explodes while my house is burning down with a dead man inside.

Ammunition doesn’t explode. In fact, right here on good ol’ FR was a youtube video link of firemen walking through a fire with ammunition in a fire designed to ensure the ammo went off. The firemen had no injuries whatsoever. In fact, not even their coats had marks. Bullets simply have little energy from igniting shells. It takes a barrel to make the pressure needed to send bullets flying at lethal velocities.
