    Reminds me of an incident during an international comp in Germany a few years back. Shooting a Japanese Matchlock, a member of my club was kneeling to reload, and as he was priming the pan a shooter on the adjacent lane fired. The lane RO (one per lane in internationals) saw a bit of smouldering match descend towards the pan and ignited the priming flask. The flask was never found. Neither was the shooter's index finger, above the topmost knuckle. We now call him "Stumpy" (still shooting though).
    True freedom includes the freedom to make mistakes or do foolish things and bear the consequences.

    Yup. That's the other one.

    Seems it's very easy to screw up loading with an in-line.

    One 50gr pellet = good

    Two 50gr pellet = BIGGER bang, so it MUST be good.

    Three 50gr pellets = uh, that smarted a bit, but hey.......

    Four 50gr pellets plus 'did I put one down the barrel already? Hmmm, dunno, anyhow, 200gr will surely shoot THAT sucker out, eh?'

    Wrong.
