Check your headstamps! I had a loaded 38 super case in my western metal 9mm box chamber and fire in my cx4. Super loud bang and it blew apart my feed ramp, nothing past that though.

Makes me thinking how many of these stuff is overloaded. Is the gun still ok?
That could have been worse. So this came in a commercial box or did you mix them up yourself. Either way OUCH.
Smokeless powder is just a passing fad. #1 gun rule,carry one.
Geeeze , luck you weren't hurt.
Ouch !!
Bet your hand feels like you knocked one out of the park with a cracked bat.
I did not think that a 38 super case would allow the action to close up enough to even allow it to fire. Quite a bit longer than 9mm and it headspaces on the case mouth. Strange stuff. Hope it all works out okay.
Anxiousness is the axeman of accuracy.
IPSC and 3gun.
I wouldn't think it would chamber at all..but glad or hope you are okay.
I may not be as good as I once was...but I'm as good once as I ever was
Don't practise until you get it right...practise until you can't get it wrong
Good to check. Sorry it happened, but thanks for sharing. There's a saying "learn from the mistakes of others, you won't live long enough to make them all yourself"
sometimes cheap Canada reloaded ammo isn't so cheap.you're lucky,
I’m glad you are ok, scary stuff
