    Why not? If others can learn from mistakes.....

    Was present on a range when a guy fired his rifle (yes it actually fired) and then he couldn't open the bolt.
    Had to take rifle to smith to get bolt out (maybe removed barrel) and found extractor blown out of bolt head plus other damage.
    Had to get a replacement bolt.
    Cause - primer in back the front.

    Another incident a guy I know (I wasn't there this time which is just fine if these guys are going to be firing their rifles next to me with dodgy set ups) pulled the trigger and heard a muffled pop. Damage again to bolt head. Cannot remember if any drama opening bolt. Force of the humble primer actually drove the cartridge case fwd in the chamber.
    Cause - cartridge without flash hole.
