While overloads can be a problem, underloads can also be a problem. My brother was trying to make some light loads for a 45-70 trapdoor and the gun came apart. He was using RX7 with a load under the recommended starting loads and a light bullet. It took about 4" out of the middle of the stock, the chamber end of the barrel looked like a banana peal and the top of the action was gone. The breach block was still in place. Luck was with him as he was OK. The gun had a new barrel and had been shot many times with factory ammo. Only case of detonation that I have ever seen personally. He had the barrel pointing down when he loaded it and raised it then shot so all the powder was near the base of the bullet.
