    The Rifle seems to be operating in the range of pressures it can hold ? . That being the 276 enfield and 30-06 , and there where a lot of 30-06 fired out of P17's .
    So what the question is what happened to the case ? . Because it all seems to point to what Gundoc has said with maybe some sort of case failure / maybe oversized / oil on case / something which contributed as a catalyst . With age cracking just behind the bolt ?????.
    So is there any pictures of the case ? .
