There is also plenty of reason to believe that there was not a spike in pressure. Too many variables to rule anything out. And no way to prove anything in this particular incident due to the fact that the rifle detonated.There is a thread about this failure on another forum and the rifle as it sits does not fail until over 85,000 psi and the 50 bmg spec is 53,664, 54,923 psi. This gun experienced over 50% higher than the max spec.
