I have done a bit of night/low light shooting, and I think the worst flash I have experienced was with a .303 No. 5 ("Jungle carbine") with the flash hider cut off. If I had had any doubts about why it was there originally, I found out when I was confronted by an 18" diameter blue, purple and yellow flash from the cordite loads. I guarantee I was blinded and for several seconds at that. Of course, the flash will vary with barrel length, type and quantity of powder, presence of a flash hider, etc., but it certainly exists, and anyone who denies that just has not done much night firing.
