Wow, glad he is ok. I never heard of a "hot round".

He has a ton of videos out. For the most part he takes precautions. From now on he will likely take more.

He’s rough on folding tables.

Basically too much powder for the bullet weight or just too much powder.

His previous SLAP rounds were wonky so it could have been incorrectly reloaded or the powder degraded.

Rex of Tiborsaurus Rex, a very knowledgeable shooter with a Youtube channel, theorized that it could have been caused by the muzzle brake.

It's cautioned not to shoot SLAP rounds in a rifle with a muzzle brake or at least a specially designed brake.

A layer of plastic from the sabot is deposited at the beginning of the brake which will then retard the travel of asubsequent round enough to cause overpressure.

May never know.

Good thing his Dad was there, filming or he probably wouldn't have made it.

Always need to have a good first aid kit; including tourniquets, Quikclot combat gauze, forceps, packing gauze...
