Glad your ok Bob.Always wear shooting glasses ,no exceptions.I didn't learn till recently that Cooper actions will blow back into your face,unlike Remington actions.
Last summer I blew 5 primers out of a box of 50,243AI on a PD shoot.Pulled about 250 bullets when I got home,to find 6-7 that were over by 3 grains.Loaded before i got my electronic dispensor.The drum type Hornady threw consistand loads,so I STOPPED CHECKING EVERY 5TH LOAD.BIG Mistake!
The rem action expelled the gasses out the side vents as designed.Yook a small brass hammer to open the bolt.
