Had one 4 years ago with WWB in 45 at least the bullet barely stuck in the barrel as it cycled and tried to load a fresh round but couldnt make it into the chamber fully
Only squib I have had was a .44Mag reload but had enough powder to push bullet out the barrel. Felt like shooting a .22Mag. Sure makes on look closer and pay attention when reloading. That was baout 25 years ago.
I have had several with Remington Golden .22 LR. I bought a brick for a day at the range with my brother, and they kept getting stuck in the barrel; but only in the rifles. I stopped buying them after that.
A squib is a phenomenon in gunmanship in which a bullet that is fired does not have enough force behind it to clear the barrel, forcing the next round to ram into it when fired. Can be extremely dangerous, causing damage to the firearm as well as injury, or death, to the user.
I've only had a squib in a shotgun. In fact it was when I was goose hunting. When I pulled the trigger it looked like my gun farted :knockedout:
