The first image is soon after full pressurization, showing excellent flow from the nozzle.

The second photo shows a concussion as the divergent section of the nozzle blows out.

After the nozzle blows out, you can see the jet under expanded.

It is obvious after this third test of my H268 case and nozzle that modification is needed.
