Welcome to the forum from the TV Oregon. Like you and others, have read of rumors.
shootest wrote:I’m new here and this question probably has been beat to death;
Are there any first hand accounts of .357/.44 mag recoil induced chain firing in the mag tube during shooting or loading? I have a steel .357 carbine and my cousin has a .44 mag steel carbine. I hear 4th hand accounts of this happening, but nobody has seen it happen or have had it happen to them. Thanks, shootest

Welcome to the Forum. The internet is a crazy place. Not something I'd even heard of until you brought it up. Ammo manufacturers have been designing around that risk in lever guns for a REALLY long time.
