As you know we have had yet another member here that had a kaboom on a fairly new AR I do believe. Nobody really has been able to determine what exactly caused it yet as it seems to be somewhat of a mystery, but when I hear about things like this it scares the mess out of me. It seems like they are becoming more and more prevalent, whether it be due to faulty gun parts, faulty ammo, bad reloads or whatever. I know a lot of people claim that it is 99% of the time due to a bad reload but this person got the round straight out of a factory reload box. There have also been countless numbers of others reporting even Kabooms with factory loaded ammo. So, how can you make sure this does not happen in any firearm? Or is it just a risk you have to take?
Apparently, the user here sent off the AR for the gun and ammo to be checked by whoever did the factory reloads and they are claiming it was a 125 grain .223 round. How is that even possible? How can they even determine what grain a round was once it was fired or blown to bits? I mean I would imagine there is somewhat of the casing left but I do not see how one could accurately determine the grain by looking at what is left of a shell. Anyways someone please ease my mind and let me know of ways you can make sure this does not happen. Thanks.
