ZSR ammo 308 M80 - reports of over pressure

A report of the possibility of bad 308 ball ammo I stumbled across has been corroborated by a second event.
If you have this stuff, I would hold off till they investigate. YMMV

FIRST...Thanks for the heads up for those who use these products.
SECOND...appears to be fired out of battery...clue the primer is still intact not too flattened...But the case ruptured ....
Not a Springfield Chicago fan... they supposedly screwed gun owners (& small gun companies) over with gun control legislation because legislators gave the huge company a carve- out from the law.
So I don't own a Springfield anything and never will.
The ammo is Turkish...supposedly made to nato specs... maybe a use at your own risk type ammo.
Check the factory for ISO guidelines, to NATO Specs it should be Okay...IF it is held to that standard...16 fired ok but the 17th went bang in an unusual way. My phone won't play the blow up video...but the case looks out of battery firing, not over pressure...which indicates a gun problem.
