[Blammer]

Here is the pertinent info on that thread

"While I was at the gun dealer I also picked up a pack of 30-06 165 grain reloads"

note, no military surplus ammo was used.

It in post 8 of this thread http://www.odcmp.org/new_forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=52023

The first two pics in CajunShooter's link are what I saw in the e-mail sent to me. Remains of a wrecked Garand and a cartridge case. The headstamp was out of view.

The e-mail's text focused mainly on faulty Korean '06 ball as the culprit. It was a bit overstated, but then sometimes overstating a point must be done when life and limb are in peril. The author of the article is a man, I trust, has seen more than one instance of firearm mis-haps. He has not failed in his position of responsibility by sending to me and others the cautions of mis-matched firearms and\or ammo of unknown, suspect origin. I applaud his efforts.

Thanks 'osage' for the CMP link. Some good, informative posts there. My No.1 son in Atlanta reffered me to same link.

Blammer makes a most pertinent point with the sorry looking sp ammo pic: firearms, no matter how robust, and ammo of unknown origin in the hands of an inexperienced, overly enthusiastic shooter can lead to disaster. Use of such ammo without verification of origin would more than likley, IMHO, be viewed with great suspicion by a majority here at Cast Boolits. Anybody doubting that? Go ahead, ask them.....I dare Ya..

Ste. Lineaux T'eype was a Catholic Bishop of Antimonyum. Despite suffering severe tinnitus, His Emminence led an army of volunteer Spruvians to victory over a horde of invading infidels. The infidels leader was Amabo The Imposter. Amabo was soundly defeated on the shores of Lake Meechee-Kun near the fabled city of Shi-ut`Ka Go.

Current thought give some credit to Blago the Ugly, feudal master of Sionilli for Amabo's ultimate downfall.
