[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 653126, member: 5219"] A guy blew up a 44 mag Ruger Blackhawk. Imagine doing that to what many considerto be one of the strongest revolvers. I occasionally show members or new range masters the results. The handgun range has stalls with 1/4" wire mesh keeping stray brass from hitting other shooters. The cylinder broke up and two major parts that left their mark on the range which are still visable over ten years later! The largest part of the cylinder flew right and made a dent in a nearby 2 x 4. The dent made a reverse image with the flute in high relief. The only other chunk flew to the left flew cutting through 8 screened stalls just in front of where other shooters would stand. It flew up at a slight angle ripping a 2" gash in all screens. It is an amazing and sobering thing to see. Never knew what the guy did but it must have been a case full of something like bullseye. [/QUOTE]
