AzRednek Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 He didn’t give any details about the ammo or rifle he was shooting. I suspect a lawsuit is being planned. My best guess he was likely being video recorded. I’d really like to see a slow motion video of the incident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Hess Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 I saw that some time ago. He was firing a super armor piercing sabot round, discontinued, though it, There's a video that he was making when it blew. The military field manual for the round specifically says to NOT fire it in a weapon that has a muzzle break. That rifle he was using has a muzzle break. I think the consensus was that the sabot material built up inside the muzzle break area or the barrel, causing a high pressure condition which blew the receiver. I don't care for the "screw this cap on the back" type of receiver designs. Oh, safe and all if everything goes right, but this one didn't work out at all, did it?
