Teaching a couple young ladies the basics of pistol shooting (since that's all I know about pistol shooting) using a NEF R92 D/A revolver. While one of them was shooting, I heard a very weak sounding shot so I quickly had her cease fire and hand me the firearm. The round had fired with only enough power to push the bullet halfway (2 inches) up the barrel before stopping. Quick push with the cleaning rod broke it free and the day went on without event.
Have any of you had this happen and then fired a second shot without clearing the barrel? I'd be curious to see what would happen @ .22 RF pressures...barrel bulge? Blow out? I can't imagine it being nearly as dramatic as a center fire, but I'm curious now. Post pics if available...or maybe everyone that's ever done this is dead.

BTW, I'm NOT advocating shooting with a plugged barrel! Simply want to know if anyone has had the misfortune of doing so (With a .22 RF) and would like to share.
