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.
Thousands of rounds “cooking-off” does sound pretty unnerving to some people. I’d keep a respectful distance, but that’s just me.
Unlike smokeless powder, black powder cartridges during a fire will explode, but much like a fire cracker and not a bomb.
