Looking at that box of rounds tells Me that somebody needs to stop reloading till they learn properly and instead use some Factory ammo.

‘course with a blowedup gun it’s a tad too late

So factory ammo fired down a barrel with a cleaning rod jammed in it, like in this instance, wouldn’t blow it? Sounds to me like hand jive ammo had nothing to do with this gomer move that went boom.

Too hot loads, maybe - since the brass was apparently getting stuck in the chamber?

how many times do you have to rod-out the brass before you realize there's a problem???

I have a friend and new shooter that has been driving me crazy with questions about reloading shot shells. Got him a book on reloading and asked him questions about the art a month latter. He could not tell me anything about powders, shot size, wads or primers. This week he cut in half his first 100 rounds to retrieve powder and shot as he knew from the book he had done it wrong. Cut his thumb to the bone with razor knife. Now after the doctors bill he could have just paid for the best factory loads and saved time, money and pain. You can not fix stupid!
