Yep, and the next time you see your buddy have him put those two rounds in his 30-06 and I guarantee they will fit his chamber! This essentially proves that you should never have more than one firearm and it's ammo on a bench. I saw this same thing happen last year at a range in Wyoming when a guy had a .270 and his 7mm mag on his bench along with the ammo for both and slipped a .270 into the wrong rifle. The noise was real loud when it went off and the bolt would not pull the round from the chamber. It took a couple pretty good impacts with a solid cleaning rod to get the case out and it was swollen and one side was ripped open. It could have been much worse, but the rifle was okay after close inspection and the guy was only visibly shaken up.
