I am always interested in how they cut the primer in half without it going off.

Me too. Hey Wolfgang, was the 30 Carbine Devastator the only round you have ever had detonate while sectioning?

I seem to recall him saying that he does them submerged in water. . . At least I think I recall that. . .

Awesome.

I had to do a double take at the French round... Berdan flash holes.

I was thinking how did the water get in the case to kill the primer with the bullet in it. Then I figured they did it with the primer out the seated it as normal during the loading process.

Looks like they put some kind of of bonding agent to keep the powder together.

Wolfgang's Nightmares! Starting from the left;
7.62 Frangible projectile that broke in half in the case while kinetic pulling, and setting off the primer that shot out the other piece between my feet
.30 Carbine Devastator, this is the only one that hurt
7.62x54R PZ Explosive Spotter round, butterflied itself (Blew up) on my wet grinder, making a 1inch chip in the stone
7.65 Argentine Explosive Spotter, in a kinetic puller (yeah, I was THAT guy) Its still a live round in puller shown!
After each one of these I had to change my underwear.  
My advice to anyone who wants to try this at home, pay attention and make sure of what you are cutting into.
