could the 13 year old boy have loaded this one bullet

No, the youth had his own rifle. That was a .280(7mm RE).
Like I posted, the owner has no clue as to where the '06 cartridge came from.
When he donated the rifle he told me that he must have chambered a .280, but again the case in it "is" a 30-'06Springfield. and the rifle "IS" stamped .270win.
In hast, slamming a bolt closed, it may be possible to push the lead in. Possible??
