Stoic Socialist Freak_090 I don't see why that would void the warrenty, when H&K does ice tests with all of their firearms.
To my knowledge, dry ice isn't really ice. It's Carbon Dioxide in a solid state.
It's A LOT colder.

Dry ice doesn't go from solid-liquid-gas like normal ice, it just goes solid-gas.
But I could be wrong, I dun really understand german...
But none the less, I'm sure that a warrantee and a test are two completely different things.

Also, how would the manufacturer know whether or no you have use reloads, dry ice, etc..?

Inspection of cracks, wear, etc.
Possession of reloading materials in the home, possible reciepts, etc.

And I dunno about HK, but my step-dad was asked if he used reloads when he sent in a gun to get fixed.

I'm sure there's a way to test it.
Especially with a manufacturing giant such as HK.

Especially with a manufacturing giant such as HK.Either way, If you have used reloads and somthing breaks (not a kB!) and you say that you used regular ammo, there is no way for them to tell. Any minor fractures or dammages done by Dry Ice could also be the result of the gun going from cold-hot repeatedly. no?

There's an ever so slight difference from going from -109 F to gunshot temp, and 32 F and gunshot temp.
I can only assume the dry ice at -109 or below would crack more.
