Added 2024-07-12 23:59:27 +0000 UTCToday we test out 2 oz. steel slugs made by Ballistic Machinist. He asked us to test them out to help iron-out some minor issues he was having. Testing and performance went quite well. Check out Tim's channel: @BallisticMachinist Thank you channel members and Patreon supporters

We were having pressure spikes due to the heat, causing the gas seal to blow out and cooking the rest of the wad. As it got hotter the effect got worse.
