Same thing here with a 9mm. The real trick is keeping the muzzle downrange while doing the "Holy shit, that's hot!" dance.I never set off a round on the bench, but I did have a hot .45 shell land between my glasses and eyelid once. Not fun.
The dance of our people.Same thing here with a 9mm. The real trick is keeping the muzzle downrange while doing the "Holy shit, that's hot!" dance.
I’m gonna bold this as the cool factor we all wish we could play with.If you’re around firearms enough you see all kinds of crazy shit happen.
Operator error is usually first on the list, So many ways to f*** up something so simple.
Then you start getting into mechanical failures.
Once you break through into the NFA world.. the number of possible ways to hurt yourself is Exponential.
I’ve got over 1 million rounds down range at least..
All it takes is one sketchy 40 mm reload to change your perspective on everything.
You never wanna be in that situation where you unsquint your eyes, Glad you have both your eyes and hope you still have all your fingers.
Pretty much the only reason I only let the other NES members play with factory loads…I’m gonna bold this as the cool factor we all wish we could play with.

It’s happened a few times.
Examples?It's not uncommon at all.
The other reason I was told this is to prevent bullet setback. I’ve never experienced it but some old time reloaders would say the bullet could seat deeper if the rounds got banged around or dropped over time.
Worry about an ejected rd setting one off??? That ranks right up there with worrying about a wild Panda bear walking to my house from China, waiting until I leave for work, breaking in, drinking all my beer, figuring out all my passwords, running up a huge bill on my credit card, raping my wife's cat to create a mutant species of cat/panda bear with super intelligence that will take over the earth and make us all their slaves.
I would watch it. Twice.There's an academy award winning movie script in this post!!!!

Tupperware container of black powder?I do shoot indoor range with an open box of reloads on the bench never really thought about this happening. Maybe I'll close the lid when shooting now....maybe not
As far as shooting bench "protocol".....I was on the outdoor range awhile back.....walked in and saw a guy and his 2 kids shooting a black powder revolver.......with an open Tupperware container of black powder on the bench right under the revolver while he was shooting it. I walked over and politely said you want to cover that container when shooting......or move it somewhere else......trust me. He said oh yeah....that is a good idea.
