Had a squib today, obviously. Launched a 125gr FMJ about an inch into my old snub-nose Rossi. But I can't figure out why. There was powder in the case that was blown all over the bench so I don't think much, if any burned. The powder and primers are fresh. 40 rounds of the same batch fired very well before this one. It was the first shot of a set, so recoil didn't mess with bullet depth. I'm looking for opinions of other reloaders as to the cause.
The load is a Rainer 125gr FP over 3.8gr of red dot. C.O.L is 1.440"
Not sure if a pic helps...
Looks like unburned powder in cylinder that squib was fired from. Inside of the cartridge looked similar.
