Pat, who loaded that ammo you were having problems with? I got 260 more rounds of ultramax to burn up and I'm done shooting that, I did the shake and listen test on each individual round, they all sounded good. The thing I'd be worried about is not hearing anything shake. Lets just hope they keep pistol powder away from rifle powder.
I almost wonder if that ammo in that video was doing what happened to you, a bullet lodged in the barrel then it blew up...
It is hard to see where it blew, the mag flys out and apart, whether it actually blew the barrel apart and did all that I can't tell. I did mess with my AR and it seemed that it would be quite difficult to get it to fire out of battery, the bolt needs to be rotated for the firing pin to protrude out the face, and to rotate it must be in position to get into the clearance in the upper.

I have an analytical balance (no, I'm not a doper...) and weighed 15 rounds last night. The loaded rounds ranged from 174.35 grains to 180.57 grains, with a standard deviation of 1.74 grains (1.4%). Is this normal?
