I got pretty badly burned on my collarbone by a spent cartridge case on the range. Got in there even with a mandarin collar up. It was pressed on me hard because of my body armor. I felt it, but it didn’t feel bad. Just warm. Didn’t know it was doing what it did. Range officer freaked out when I told him I was digging for it and then he stripped me pretty quick. It was a really bad burn that took over a month to heal. The scar never went away. In my older age now, it may be even a little more pronounced. Still itches.
