Cheyenne Culpepper 32827 952 Posted June 24, 2016 had a squib in my Howa 22-250, dint hear a thing, extracted the casing, and thought, I must have put an empty in it!! It was dark... tried to put in another round, it wudn't close and I shoved part of the bullet into the case,, pulled it out and thought, a bad round, put in another round gingerly,, wudn't close,,, finally clicked,,, duh,,, got light and sure enuff bullet in the barrel,,,, whew!! good thing it dint go far into the barrel or I wud not have had a good evening at all!!! good thing was, I had my 45-70 with me last night,,,used it with a bp load to fill another nuisance permit, a total of two, the first round in the 22-250 worked... you wudn't believe what a ballistic tip will do to a skull on a deer!!!
