Funny story but could've ended different !!
Loading up real BP in 44-40's...usually do in batches of 50...when done I check them through pistol & rifle...well dang I lost 2, looked everywhere in the loading shed..even had the finder of everything come have a look but alas the Universe had just up & took em'.
That afternoon I did a bit of lawn cutting on my Toro rider mower...next day the finder of everything while hanging out the washing beckons me over & says 'guess what I found...well there was a bent up loaded 44-40 with a chunk of brass taken out of the rim so ever close to the primer & the bullet had been ripped out of the case...if that had gone 'BANG with me on top I reckon I would've s**t meself !!!
How it came to be outside still has me puzzled ...now I'm wondering where the other one is......
