Someone maybe didn't follow published load data. Maybe just filled a case with Trail Boss to the bottom of the bullet.

All seriousness aside, that is a shame. I like their bullets, but luckily I am pretty well stocked up now.

Interesting.

They only just started making ammo. For years they have only made bullets, so the only "explosives" would be primers. While they must load a lot of bullets for testing, this sounds more like a gas leak (smelting furnace) igniting, but that would not be anywhere near the ballistics tunnel. Maybe a powder bunker caught fire. What ever it was, seems like people had enough warning to get to clear.
