ORIGINAL: NITEHAWKJS

I'm new here and i don't want to start out on the wrong foot, but i do know of one CVA opitma that the barrel blew up on. A Friend of mine's brother had one toexplode on him a couple of weeks ago.He said that he was not shootingbut 90grn of powder and that it was not short loaded.It blew under the scope,tearing it up also it busted one of his ear drums adamaged his hearing in the other ear plus cracked the winshield on his truck as he was shooting it on the hood. He has it posted on the Miss. Dept of Wildlife Fisheries and Parks website

what powder?

I'll see what I can do about the pics. From what i got from his brother he had shot the gun earlier in the day while hunting and was going to clean it on returning home so he laid it on the hood of his truck to shoot at his range target thats when it exploded. He was shooting a 90grncharge of loose powder I'm not sure what brand withi think he saidpowerbelts bullet again not sure what grn they were. I'll find out for sure tomorrow and repost it.

Johnny
again what powder?
