    Ian Skennerton's book,The British Service Lee is a bit of a bible for info.He said the smaller lug would often give way if wet ammunition was fired often enough but I think the action is stretchier rather than a time bomb.
    There is a YT clip of a 300 win mag chambered no4 being fired and this happens.
