Went out tonight to zero the nv scope, must of shot about 30 rounds two of which made a pop sound not the normal bang, upon checking the box found two holes which looked like the bullet head had tumbled and gone thru sideways?? anyone else ever had this.

if it pops and not normal bang...check the bore for a squib....to insure that you don't put a round through a fouled bore.....you might have had a partial and sent 2 projectiles down range on the second firing........Do you have fresh powder and good primers...? Good luck...and be careful!!!
