Usually from a negligent overdose of fast powder.
Rod, too.
Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

I watched a guy blow up a 500 Linebaugh a few years back. Same thing, the poor sap put a double charge in one case. I think it was a lasting memory for all of us at the range that day, to pay close attention when your at the reloading bench.

That's why you always pay close attention when handloading.

I imagine that was probably like a bomb going off.
