Near Death Experience from Over Pressure Round - Warning to All


Recommended Posts


From everything in I've gathered from the .50cal groups ,the problem is he's using a SLAP round.   Due to how they function their not supposed to be fired though anything with a muzzle break or supressor, due to problems with the sabot case getting caught can and causing excess pressure. Not to mention SLAP's have a much higher pressure naturally than other type of ammo. Barret, and most of the other 50 cal manufacturers highly advise against using SLAP's . And honestly when you can get API and RALFOS rounds makes you wonder why you want SLAP.

Its probably not the sabot getting stuck in the muzzlebreak what caused the pressure spike it may bee a stuck piece of the sabot close to the chamber or something wrong with the powder in the cartridge. It seems dangerous to have a rifle made for 55000psi what explodes in 80000+psi, some modern cartridges are factory made close to that pressure.
