Yes, Ankerson, I'm aware he did it with an overload but there isn't enough room in the case to overload and blow with a single series- you'd have to sytematically overload- when using slow burning powders to slowly weaken the cylinder before collapse. Medium to faster burning powders are more usually used for these 'mistakes'. Then you can get a dramatic failure right out of the starting gate. these powders are for lower velocity or smaller weight projectiles.
Why anyone would intentionally put more fast or medium burning powder in when the slow powders will deliver better accuracy and usually velocity...bet it was Unique. That one size fits all powder is misunderstood.
...maybe it was just too much 2400 over a long time..that powder spikes high.
WhiteHall labs tested the Blackhawk cylinders to destruction and it was an enormous psi
