Middle of the final uspsa stage of the day I had a squib. RO stopped me, before I could attempt to fire again
Scary part was the next round chambered when I did a mag change and racked the slide
Bullet was stuck 2” down the barrel. There was no unburned powder in the barrel or casing, so either it was a very light charge that burned all the way or it was just a primer
They were my own reloads. BE-86 and a 180gn plated bullet, ~940fps for all except that one
Thank your RO, if you are running stages for folks, pay attention to those failure to fire events, electronic ear pro helps

Thank the RO, watch for squibs
Had a squib during a uspsa match. RO was on point and stopped me in the middle of the stageI shook his hand and thanked him a few minutes later for saving me...
