[QUOTE="Profreedomokie, post: 3356513, member: 524"] Reminds me years ago I pulled up to our old range in Ponca. I got out of my truck ,grabbed some of my stuff, and walked down to the firing line. A guy was getting ready to shoot a lever action 30-30 and said to me " I glad someone is here now". I asked him "Why". He replied "This load that I'm getting ready to shoot is 10% over max load so if anything goes wrong someone is here. I said "ok". I stood way back while he shot the first and last round. Lucky for him it locked up the action and he was done for the day. Why anyone would try that with a 30-30 I'll never understand. I heard later he had to take it to a local gunsmith to get the casing out of the chamber. [/QUOTE]
