This is a good topic, but there are a few things wrong. Black powder doesn't produce enough pressure to blow up a gun. Black powder produces less pressure than smokeless powder. That is why they say don't use smokeless powder in a muzzle loader. Now if you use blasting powder instead of black powder I could see a problem. But then again I don't know anyone willing to try loading ammo with blasting powder to find out. I have handloaded alot of ammo and I know that you can safely load black powder into any cartridge and the only thing you have to worry about is clean up and a really anemic sounding round. I would have to say that that Winchester died a horrible and very foolish way. Thanks Arvin
