Jeff,
I had a like experience happen to me a week or so back. I was changing over to .45 ACP and was incorrectly using my Dillon Powder Ck...I'd just installed it for the first time and was not doing it right. I somehow let a primed-but-uncharged round slip thru. During test firing (rapid fire no less!!) This uncharged round did EXACTLY what you describe. The primer actually had enough power to cycle the slide and clear the brass form the gun! (CZ-97B) The bullet was seated in the barrel JUST deep enough to keep the next round from going in to battery. We BOTH were extreemly lucky!! A little more "umph" and we'd not have liked the outcome!

I'm glad you were able to discuss this and type with all your fingers!
Keep reloading...we've both had a lesson that will stay with us for all our years.

Take it easy.
Bob
