I had a buddy years ago accidently shoot a .308 out of a 25-06 Remington 700. It did fire nothing happened to the gun or him. Just a good thing it was not a Barnes X ! I have a book on Roy Weatherby, and when he was developing his MK V action .300 WBY to test the strength he put a 180 gr bullet in the bore and loaded a round behind it and fired. Nothing happened to the action, the barrel had a slight bulge !
