How is that remotely possible, your sure you just did not crimp the heck out of it and it didn't want to let go right?
The moment the bullet clears part way the case mouth, the leade of the rifle or pistol chamber allows extra gas to escape around the bullet as the bullet starts to engage the rifling to drop the pressure. Some firearms have more, some have less, but its critical that there is some leade in the chamber. Even match guns with very shot leades, and using 0.010" "jamming" length on the rounds to keep the bullet from "jumping" in the leade area still have some leade in the chambers.
So I really can't see how thats possible. Unless I am missing something?

Ignorance, I can understand, foul mouth, I can tolerate
Bragging and stretching the truth.. well we all do that some.
But I do not joke about safety -
there are 7720 members here and maybe a few of the un-inspired ones may read this clown's technique and blow themself up.
All that may just because of one braggart ignorant impersonator were not told to behave.
So damianss if you are still here, the attached gun would be perfect for your load testing jig

That is one major blowout !!!
I’ve seen .40 cals. that haven’t blown that bad and they are a high pressure round !!!
I don’t think a fully supported barrel would have even helped with that one.

As far off center as the firing pin dent is, it looks like he might have had some headspacing and/or lockup problems too. Scary thing to have happen whatever the reason.
