If I remember correctly that Swiss rifle had a bullet sized .314.  If the chamber is like my K31, the fellow would had to have pounded on the bolt handle to get it closed.  Even so, I doubt that alone was enough to make the pressure the round delivered, likely an overload behind that too large bullet.  Not sure, but I think that fellow gave up shooting after his incident.
