In addition to the risk of injury, it appears that what was probably a $2,000 gun is now a paperweight/conversation piece.

Jeez! When I saw the thread title I said to myself “don’t be a 320, don’t be a 320!” Then I saw it was a 320! Doh!
I really love my 320 it’s so damn shootable!
Glad she’s OK!!
Bruce is building a 40 Mason Lane edition 320 for Limited I of course am interested in, probably gonna be a kaboom machine!
I see a bunch of that ammo hitting the gun shows in the future. Not yours of course, GJM, others just trying to dump it. Thanks for the heads up. Glad nobody was seriously injured.
In the P-F basket of deplorables.
Thank God he's OK.
Object lesson we constantly need to relearn - if you're not rolling you own ammo, buy quality factory ammo.
I'll join everyone else in stating my relief that Charlie (or anyone else) was not injured.
And I'll add that it seems as though Charlie has faced and handily dealt with some real challenges this year, considering her shoulder injury and the recently described KaBoom!
And a suggestion . . . I worked in the copper mining industry for about 40 years and most of my time was spent around smelters and rod plants, dealing with hot metals. The nature of those types of operations is that one must be prepared to occasionally deal with a "Ka Boom".
However, we recognized that there are different levels of Kabooms. When they increase in severity, intensity, or fright inducing activity, we upgraded the Kabooms to "KFB's".
(K=Ka, F=F--kin'. B=Boom).
Based on the provided photos and description, I am pretty certain, this incident qualifies as a"KFB"
Thanks for sharing this information and best wishes to you and Charlie and Astro for a Merry Christmas and sage and KFB free holiday!
@GJM, that’s scary. I’m glad that the gun took most of the damage.
It’s disturbing that small manufacturers are making unsafe ammo. Buyer beware? At very least this company owes you a refund and a new gun.

Everytime I go on Ammoseek looking for ammo, and see everything is "Reman" or "New Reman," I think about the two, count 'em, TWO, KBs I've caused in 30+ years or reloading several hundred thousand rounds of ammo. I simply won't shoot someone else's reloads, or "new" ammo from a company that I've never heard of before they went on sale during an ammo drought.
Scary incident. It looks like the Romeo lens took the brunt of what otherwise would have had an unobstructed path to her face.
Glad she was not seriously injured.
That's some bad stuff. Glad she's OK.
If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.
