Has any research ever been done to see if a wad in the barrel can cause a rupture?
Mike, I've had wads that had been stuck in a barrel and could be blown out, others needed a rod to clear them. So yes, I believe that a stuck wad could cause a dangerous momentary spike in pressure and cause this. But I don't want to find out.
