Had a strange shot today while shooting our monthly Steel Challenge Match. I was doing real well until the last stage. Got three decent runs in and then on my 4th run I had a case explode from the back.

Looked like a double feed but it exploded out of battery and the rear of the case completely shattered. I just got some burned oil on my hands but the guy with the timer got some gas to his face. Good thing we all wear safety glasses.

On investigation, the extractor was missing. Cases were staying in the chamber and fortunately someone with a Ruger Mark IV let me shoot their gun for my last run so I didn't have to each a 30 second run.

I normally keep an extra bolt in my bag but just swapped to a new bag and didn't have the bolt with me.
