it would be interesting to learn the specific facts regarding each of the firearms failures in the link. I suspect the same folks that were not careful reloaders may also be careless with power tools, lawnmowers and vehicles. So it depends. All the best...

How do you "double charge" a bottlenecked rifle case? I suspect something else happened with the Weatherby.

How do you break the front off the slide of the .45?
I'm with Bushy on double loading bottleneck cases.
