But that incident was in America, only reported in the Belfast Telegraph.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

I did hear a member of the US Army used a .50BMG round to bash pin out quite recently. It cost him his hand.
