Wondering ?????
 

Watching Guns international I noticed a new listing for a Parker 16 Gauge that had occurred some damage... not to get specific (look at the listing) could someone please tell me what 16 gauge load (factory or reload pressure) would cause damage such as this.. I would just really like to know where this forum would draw the line with load pressure with the ability to do what is pictured.. I am asking this assuming barrel wall thickness is sufficient... I don't want to discuss that particular gun ,just the pressure that would cause that damage..

To be more specific... How much pressure would it take to do this to a good measuring everyday Damascus barreled Parker 16 gauge GH ?? With NO barrel obstruction...

I'm glad it was not me...

maybe more pressure than you are likely to fit in the shell

i would bet there was some debris in there


maybe - unless the seller knows and trusts the shooter - it would be a good practice to set a condition - yes - you can shoot it- here are two boxes of RSTs - $20 please - refundable if you buy it

Maybe a reload with more powder than should have been in there.

I want to know... Why pay the money to list an ad on GI just to publically shame an unknown, to us, party?

Give me a pressure number that would raise your eyebrow in a 16

Too-long, high-speed paper shells?

I'm more puzzled by Allen's avatar.

I doubt the person even knew they did it.

Happy meter on 11
 

My JRT with a chipper down the hole...

Educate me.... does the location of the bulge say anything to what may have happened ??
