Safety precautions. Strong Charge #004

Therefore, as a compromise for relatively light guns weighing 3.1-3.3 kg, magnum type cartridges should be fired as an exception in special cases when firing a conventional cartridge is not effective enough. You can still make a couple of such shots during the hunt. And this is for guns designed for magnum cartridges!

It often happens that magnum cartridges are used in weapons that are not designed for this purpose, and hunters who equip cartridges in a distinctive way, inspired by the appearance of magnums on sale and imagining that it is generally possible to ignore the recommendations for equipping cartridges, deliberately increase the charge and projectile, wanting to gain an advantage in hunting over their colleagues.

Modern gunpowders are very sensitive to equipment conditions and require increased accuracy in weighing the charge. I can't give you exact numbers, but the trend is that increasing, for example, the charge of Kruk powder by 5% increases the pressure by 10%, and increasing the charge by 10% increases the pressure by 40%, all other things being equal. And if you also increase the projectile?..

As a result of such an irresponsible attitude towards the cartridges used, I have recently come across two MC21-12s with exactly the same damage. When fired with a magnum cartridge (it is not known whether with a 70— or 76-mm cartridge case), the locking tooth held, but the bolt shifted downwards, breaking the guide where it is loosened by the cutout for the left side plate-the cartridge compartment. The narrow part of the slide under the handle was broken at the shutter, and the handle itself was damaged. The receiver cover was thoroughly deformed and the fixing protrusions of the front part were broken off. The barrel of one MC21-12 was inflated in the chamber area, the barrel of the second one withstood.

Among double-barreled shotguns (except for the case described above), rifles with vertical barrel positions are usually wedged, and on the IZH-27 the locking bar often breaks and the corresponding area of the shoe is crushed, after which a shock and a difficult-to-remove gap appear between the breech section of the barrels and the shoe guard. As a rule, the gun clears after an abnormal shot from the upper barrel, and the sleeve is torn off by pressing the powder gases along the rim and blows the "rags" of its base into the gap formed from above.

In my opinion, this malfunction is caused by the design features of the Russian "vertical" with a lower lock. I have never seen foreign-made rifles with similar malfunctions (probably because the vast majority of Russian rifles are in the hands of illiterate hunters).

Guns with horizontal barrel positions are much less likely to wedge, especially the TOZ-25, which has a strange tendency to open slightly when fired, so additional measures have to be taken.

Summarizing all of the above cases, I would venture to give good advice to owners of firearms hunting weapons: shoot only with ammunition that matches your rifle and stay away from colleagues who shoot unknown things.
