"At least a half-dozen other shooters witnessed the incident, along with about twenty Missouri conservation officers who were at the range to qualify with their handguns that afternoon. In fact, one I have known for years had been just visiting with me minutes before the rifle literally exploded."

Sounds like he might have been distracted and double charged the rifle to me. Last year at the range the shooter next to me double charged his muzzle loading rifle andluckily he recognized that the rifle was double charged by looking at his witness mark.
