[QUOTE="ProBusiness, post: 801894, member: 6145"] OK, i asked the guy doing reloading classes at H&H this question. Don - seems to know a lot. He said that ammo could explose if over 140. the primer does not set the powder off but the powder "explodes" ?? and splits the casing. The bullet and primer don't have a barrel to travel down so in effect the bullet just seperates from the casing and lays there. sometimes the explosion is enough to drive the primer (unfired) as speeds that could hurt someone but we are talking breaking the skin not pentrating and killing them. Now I am not saying I know any of this to be true. just repeating what Don said on the topic. Also the other class members agreed with this. i have carried shotgun shells and pistol cartridges inside my truck for years w/o a problem. [/QUOTE]
