Shooting Hot 22?

Was shooting my Marlin 795 when something sketchy happened my guess is a little to much powder in that one. Shooting Aguila have shot lots of them never had this happen.

almost looks like it went off slightly out of battery

maybe due to all that carbon buildup preventing the case from seating?

That’s what we where thinking believe it or not gun was not that dirty before the shoot.

i believe it. its so easy to suddenly go through several hundred .22 rounds.

i feel like even the 'clean' .22 rounds are still quite dirty.

I had to switch to a bolt gun from my semi auto .22 because even with .22 range sessions were getting expensive.
