was stuck in the hole where the firing pin hit. The round was obviously (in my humble opinion) way too hot. Besides lodging the tip of the firing pin in the pierced rim, it also split the case. I would pack the remaining rounds up and send them back to the manufacturer along with some pics of the case.
