Reload gone wrong? Glock destroyed, deforming hand injury
This article offers very little information other than the event was possibly due to reload "double-charge." I'm not a reload guy so I'll leave it to those who do to speculate on what may have happened...

DAMN! That's some scary stuff.
I reload on a single stage, and have caught myself with a double charge. I noticed it right away, and dumped it. Makes me think a progressive might be safer as it would eliminate the Human error of filling the same case twice?Last edited by ExFlyinguy; March 28th, 2017 at 12:28 PM.

A pistol with a metal frame would have absorbed more of the blast energy and the hand may have fared better.

I think there was something wrong besides a double charge. Hot load and Bullet set back or a barre impingement is more likely.

Squib load which threw the bullet far enough into the barrel (now a barrel obstruction) yet allowed the next round to chamber?

More like someone switched out the powder with flash powder. That is not from a double load.
An m-80 does something similar, and an m-80 is a hell of a lot more powerful, contained or not.

This is the main reason I do not reload.
Rules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.
