this was a 38 special loaded with a 148gr hollow base wadcutter on top of a few grains of solo 1000.
it has been my standard plinking round for all my revolvers and 357 mag rifles for years.
the front of the wadcutter blew off leaving the base in the shell. lead is smeared all over the face
of the cylinder and in the barrel.
i fired this is my charter arms 38 off duty. pretty cool, i have been shooting since i was 14
(way too many years) and this is the first time i saw a failure like this.
