Yup, another blow-up report with 2400 in a rifle, this time a K31.
This is not the only K31 but the other one doesn't say what powder was involved. That brass wash indicates pretty high pressure. One wonders how a normal cast boolit load can produce such extreme pressure? If the powder were to truly detonate then maybe. More realistically, a double charge would raise the pressure appreciably, especially if the load is already getting up there to start with.
Anyway, we should all take note and watch our reloading practices!
Interesting how a K31 fails. Apparently they blow the top off the action just like this one, thus preventing injury to the shooter.
