Um, coffee stat!
I never mentioned anything about it
not chambering or bolt specifics. I know for a fact the bolt will close and a .308 diameter bullet will be up against a .224 diameter hole. End result, blown up gun, got it. But not a slug way down the end of the barrel as pictured.
The .22-caliber bore simply isn't big enough to handle the .30-caliber projectile of the .300BLK round, and all that pressure from the round needs to go somewhere once the primer is struck.
From the NRA article that I have read. The receiver is the weak point in this equation and will fail long before a .308 gets anywhere near the end of the bbl. The other reason I asked for more pics is that I find it curious that said projectile made it that far if the receiver were blown to pieces, one would think a screeching halt would occur at failure or for arguments sake, just after the gas port, with said blown receiver and nothing to scavenge said propellant and gasses venting to atmosphere by quickest means possible why is the projectile near the end of the barrel?
Just to reiterate, where in my post did I say never coulda woulda? I only made a comment on the picture posted, which without a scale to reference I can only surmise as a bull styled bbl with a supposed .308 dia. Bullet lodged in the forward end. Not as to weather or not accidents happen, lack of attention to detail can maim or kill, or for that matter question your intelligence. I asked if a mistake had been made as to the posted picture simple as that.
Now how do you take that coffee?
