Puzzles me why anyone would think of filing a lawsuit against a retailer of factory ammunition, Surely an investigation first to determine the exact cause of the burst barrel. As it turns out advice seems in this case, to indicate an old firearm with metal fatigued barrels using modern ammunition was the cause of the blown barrel.

If anything a question could be asked of Hornady, the manufacturer of the ammunition but of course with even just a small bit of thought they would soon have pointed to the real problem. This is the very thing that is covered here in NZ for firearms licence applicants. I am one of the firearms safety instructors who teach this, old shotguns and modern ammunition do not mix. Double rifles are not overly common here but the same would apply.

You might have looked rather silly in a law court had you gone ahead with your lawsuit. Fortunately nobody got hurt except a little pride maybe.
