blowing uo rifle test

On further reading the gunsmithing website I got it from had the original poster (from Iceland) state that all rifles were 30-06 and a bullet was stuck 4" in front of the chamber, then a 30-06 round was fired behind it. Strange the European barrels hold and the Rem. and Browning barrels go KABOOM.

Ya real strange.............the Euro barrels held but the Yankee barrels went buy buy:rolleyes:
Who Paid for this test ? Sako ?? after it's sales dropped off from the bursting barrel recall ?:redface:
:bsFlag:
 
If you look closely you can see that a few rifles also had barrel failures, just not the catastrophic ones that Rem and Browning had. The Tikka and Howa are the ones whose actions I would like to see out of the stock, I would like to see the extend of the breaching.... Supercub, you wanna Xray those for us :D
 
Maybe the Swedes should stop shoving stuff up their barrels and go back to shoving things up their a**. Bah, just euro-trashing on Remington and Browning to sell more Sakos, etc.
 
i will admit that i didn't view the link, and i'll also admit i'm no physics genius but i have one question.
if you had a jam, would you not want the pressure to vent out the barrel instead of coming back at your boltface, possibly ramming your bolt into your noggin:confused:
 
The Howa's are built in Japan (same action on the Vanguard). The A-bolts are also built in Japan. One held up and one did not.

Yes but two different makers.
As for everyone wondering how often someone gets a squib or bullet stuck in the barrel and loads another round anyway.... it happens more often than think, particularly with hunters who think thier first round was a miss.
