OK, I'll try to be polite here, but that was truly a fascinating discussion.
1. The ammo in question there was some unknown Chinese 115 grain, the ammo in this thread is Norinco 124 grain, so there really is no relevance.
2. The final outcome of the discussion on how the Artillery blew up was that the "gunsmith" had used improper tools and heat treating, not an ammo issue at all.
3. The only poster who had anything to say about the "red hot +P++" ammo was...hmmm...Sieger.
Now you have described this ammo as "+P at least, +P+, and +P++". I'm not even sure what +P++ is, but I don't think there's a SAAMI rating for that.
I will refrain from discussing this here anymore until I have chrono'd my 124 grain Norinco, the exact same stuff pictured above. I would suggest doing the same to avoid digging the hole any deeper.
