I've got a box full of this blown up stuff. I've accumulated it over the years when I worked at a full time gunshop, and at my own 'smithing business. The AMT slide is a 45 win mag. The owner thought he had Win 296 in the powder hopper...He had 231 in it instead. Probably about 4 times as much powder as would have been safe. The S&W 19 357 mag was a load of Unique. He didn't have his glasses on, and didn't see he had the "10 ' block over a notch, so he threw 15.5 grains, instead of 5.5 grains, a triple load. Took the top of the gun off. The 1911 barrel was a stuck bullet, with another one fired on top of it. The Ruger barrel is the same story.http://forum.lugerforum.com/attachmh...1&d=1624074634
