Another rifle bits the dust using smokeless

[Martini2]

Well I think the moderator has the better overview. There is a great deal to be said about what fellow competitors on a line might expect safety wise. Fortunately, the individual experienced rifle problem perhaps isolated enough that others did not suffer from parts and pieces when the rifle gave way. It might also be said that any mishap was not the rifles fault. Please note I’m a certified NRA Range Officer. When accidents occur on range the consequences can be nothing to banter about. I’m obligated to seek medical aid. There is always a medical KIT in the truck. That location is described to participants at before match safety briefings. In addition, there would be a lot of paperwork and clean up too. Everyone’s fun on the range will stop until the entire incident is handled properly. At that point it really does not matter which fuel a cartridge is inappropriately loaded with. There always seems to be a few individuals that will cross a line. Example is one BP shooter recently that admitted (wink wink) he added a little something to his BP loads to make them burn cleaner i.e. duplex. I’ve also had to explain to one shooter copper gas checks were a no no. Anytime I have scores recorded in my little blue book at official BP match I’d welcome authorities to pull apart a random round from my loading box because it is 100% what that discipline is regulated to. To be sure it is incumbent on some of the wise old-timers in BPCR to share their knowledge and experience. So, in some kind way those less savvy in handloading gain the right process and to aim small.
