Just now I heard something bouncing around in the clothes dryer and asked my Wife what it was. She suggested it was perhaps a live round. I went to the dryer, opened the door and discovered her chapstick. It got me wondering if a live round could go off in a dryer. I realize that since it isn't in a gun, it wouldn't be overly catasrophic, but still wouldn't be the best thing that could happen. Does a dryer get hot enough to ignite the powder in a live cartridge?
