- WARNING: No matter what my individual results are, you should always inspect every piece of brass to remove all debris as reloading can be dangerous and potentially cause injury or death. This was a controlled test at a controlled range and should not be repeated.

My takeaway is that there are probably quite a few things that we obsess over which are not quite as important as we think they are.
I wasn`t surprised by it. Primers are very powerful. It flat out blew the rice out of the way.
Adding rice to my deer load! LOL - You know - the fact you keep asking the Why's! Leads us to an additional answers! Now for testing in my lab. Thank YOU!
I also use rice as a tumbling media. I use medium kernel rice to minimize rice in the primer holes. Long Grain will stick all the time. But it still happens with medium, due to breakage of the kernels. The scarier occurrence was to discover that kernels were staying in the case and rounds being fired with a kernel of rice mixed into the powder. I was unloading some rounds and out pops a kernel of rice with the powder.
Thanks fer sharing !!.....the ole' BP/paper-under-primer-trick has always intrigued me aswell,....I think I will test that myself to see how it lowers SD's.....
Holly shit is exactly correct. I would have neve believed this.
Never underestimate the power of a primer. I’ll seat a foam earplug into a .40 s&w case with just a primer. It comes out with enough power to dent a coke can pretty good.
really interesting,just deprimed berdan .303 and tumbled in corn cob,quite afew had one flashhole blocked so I meticulously checked and cleared with compressed air.did not enter my head to think about ignition consequences.
Coolest rice cooker ever!
Interesting test. But remember it was the Chinese that invented gunpowder. A little rice here and there will add to the combustion. LOL
Good information and video. Never thought about such happening. Never thought about using rice for tumbling brass. Did the cases show any sign of pressure problems. Thanks for the video
Not that surprising. Try seating your primers through very thin paper. Keeps small powder granules from clogging the space between the anvil legs. Old BP trick from the old days. Berdan primers sometimes give better SD/ES numbers due to the small holes. Just a PITA to reload.
Thats cool
I watch all yours and Erik’s videos. Love them. Would you be willing to share what rice you use to tumble in. I have tried so many I could supply an oriental restaurant for a year. I googled what you mention in this video(lucky #1 sweet rice) with really no luck. Thanks either way.
I'm at the 3 min mark and my guess is it shoots fine. I think the primer has enough power to blow the price out and fire the round.
John, rather than taking the time to visually inspect the flash holes for rice, consider running them thru your Lee App Decapper setup. I would imagine that would be much faster and achieve the same result. No rice in the flash holes.
Un-freaking-believable. I just knew youd get a pack of random squibbers out of that. You need to rename that rifle the rice rocket🤣. I unabashedly admit how wrong I guessed these results.
How about an inverted cone above the flash hole so the flame would have to flare out upon entering the case.
Maybe it stabilizes the explosion of the primer obviously instantaneously, so all in all I am shocked and yes I believe you.
I knew you could drive a rice burner, I didn’t know you could shoot one.
