What happened here?
Winchester 124gr. in a Glock 19. The chip in the rim and scratches on the projectile were from a pair of pliers. Had to use a dowel to punch it out of the chamber.  Attached File Attached File Attached File |

I'm no expert, but it looks like some serious over pressure to me! What caused it is the question. Overcharge of powder or a too tight crimp? Maybe excess case length?

Maybe excess case length? Case length is what I suspect. There's a ring around the neck in the 3rd photo. Possible the case pushed into the bore squeezing the neck too tight? |

Based on appearance I bet there is a non drilled or incompletely drilled flash hole for the primer.
