Default RE: powder in the face?

ORIGINAL: eddie_v21

ok this is my first year in the ML business and i have a question.i have a knight wolverine and have shot it several times and a few times i have felt something hit me in the faceafter firing(not a huge smack or nothing just a very little something)i was wandering if this was powder blowing back outh the nipple and getting around the bolt or what the deal is and if that is anything i need to worry about?maybe something wrong with gun?i dont wanna lose an eye!
Well it's possible you are getting some blowback in the face. That's why manufacturers suggest wearing safety glasses. The yellow ones do real well while hunting too. I'd still wear them, but I have to have glasses to see any distance now.
