Thread: Pushing 308 to 300WM speeds.

Yrs ago i was in a shooting compitition,north canterbury.We started at 100yds to make sure our rifles were on song.Guy 2 mtrs along from me had a 270 with some new reloads he was trying out.His second shot gave a loud explosive bang,his head flew back about 1/2 a metre,blood and smoke off his face.The bolt was blowen back with bits missing,scope had a few marks on it.Lucky he was wearing shooing glassess.Officials came running over to him,with 1st aid.Rifle was buggered for a while but he keeped his eye sight.
