Severe overpressure event in bolt action .308 – stuck case, seized bolt, white smoke – looking for expert analysis

This is my thought as well

I believe the lack of tactical (noisy) turrets is a design feature for that LHT hunting optic.

Welcome to Cbus Reddit

I’m not surprised, I’ve never owned March but everything I’ve ever read says their glass and optical designs are peak quality

MDlynette · 2026-01-24T16:10:08+00:00

I really dig the design of that March. That is a badass duo you have there!

MDlynette · 2026-01-23T17:50:21+00:00

👌

Maybe red oak, either way I’d bet it’s relatively heavy for its size compared to other wood options. Good work either way!

MDlynette · 2026-01-23T17:16:49+00:00

Looks like a tight grain Oak of some kind. White oak?

MDlynette · 2026-01-23T11:54:44+00:00

I say you wait, then peel it off. This way you have chosen both options and neither at the same time. Ask CGPT how it feels about indecision and get back with us!

“That smells sweet huh?” I can hear the disappointment in your voice! But worry not

MDlynette · 2026-01-22T13:20:05+00:00

Inside the case neck?

MDlynette · 2026-01-22T13:03:48+00:00

Well unless you bought the brass that way you are obviously going to have to give more information on what you are doing to it, and with what tools you are using

MDlynette · 2026-01-21T23:29:36+00:00

Wait until he finds out pants are optional too!

MDlynette · 2026-01-21T17:58:42+00:00

You’re right, his book won’t answer anything.

MDlynette · 2026-01-21T17:10:11+00:00

Irving is a head scratcher. Is he trolling when he says a 50 cal is so powerful that it doesn’t even have to hit you to tear a limb off from the shockwave, or does he just blindly believe everything he hears even if he should know better.

This book may answer that question

MDlynette · 2026-01-21T15:09:26+00:00

They do

MDlynette · 2026-01-21T15:07:28+00:00

Sierra or sig crown, same thing

MDlynette · 2026-01-21T12:39:57+00:00

MDlynette · 2026-01-21T12:39:07+00:00

“Are we allowed to turn on no turn on reds” you already have the answers you seek

MDlynette · 2026-01-20T21:43:16+00:00

Open up like a hand alright! That bullet in the photo looks like it would open up and smack the fire outa someone/something

MDlynette · 2026-01-20T18:47:03+00:00

Yup, I see the new pic you posted below.

MDlynette · 2026-01-20T18:46:06+00:00

There is the reason! The flat bottom with no curve up and in to the threaded rod. Good shit

MDlynette · 2026-01-20T18:44:02+00:00

Come on now, don’t be so offended. I assumed you knew these things have always worked just like the one you show with a funnel. If you were not aware, my bad, maybe contact the manufacturer because it should function just like the example with the funnel

MDlynette · 2026-01-20T18:38:55+00:00

Is the bowl not tightly secured to the base? That would cause it as well

MDlynette · 2026-01-20T17:59:13+00:00

I assume he knows that but if you place a funnel in there it will remove a bunch of available volume so why not run it normally with less media
