Just for fun, enjoy! It's a lot more than just gel

 
The flash is certainly curious. I wonder what would cause that.

It’s air compression. If it compresses fast enough you reach the flash point of the atmosphere. The leading shock sits just off the nose of a flat nosed bullet and creates a pocket that compresses and then ignites as it approaches a barrier. Same thing occurs when the wound channel compresses after the initial shock. This is what happens in a diesel motor but with diesel fuel mixed into the “atmosphere.”
 
There is some chat on this forum about the old style 4 bore etc. Well, for some context....


Enjoy
 
I’m actually surprised he didn’t break his finger on the trigger guard if the explanation they gave for floor plate release is actually what happened.

That's a wrap, on our first hunt of this years season.

Hunting conditions are a bit tougher in South Africa during the month of February, but can be just as rewarding if done right.
