Okay before all you guys start to chime in to tell me "a bullet can't explode!" I know. But that's what the title of the article is.
I guess I never carry loose ammo, especially not rifle ammo with spitzer bullets, (or any kind of bullet in a bag along with sharp pointy things) but has this ever happened to anyone? I have to imagine it is so rare it doesn't even cross most people's minds. Luckily without being chambered not enough case pressure could build up, and the case is what actually became the projectile and didn't do too much damage.
Apparently, the woman was carrying the bullet in her purse, when it mysteriously exploded.
"Something must of hit the primer of one of the bullets," Bentley said. "The bullet stayed in the purse, but its casing put a hole in the purse and caused a minor leg wound."
