Exploding ammo

Unless contained in the chamber of a firearm, the powder charge in a cartridge doesn’t have much poop. I wouldn’t hold one in my hand when it cooked off, but the old cowboy movie stunt of tossing bullets in the fire doesn’t amount to much of an explosion in real life. Ammunition is shipped in large quantities in closed shipping containers to some of the hottest spots on the planet with no explosions.

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
