I would expect firing out of battery failure to have been case failure around the wall just forward of the base, which is far weaker than a petal-like break across the head. That is the strongest part of the case and fracturing from the center out, the hardest way to break. I would assume someone shot down the center.
To verify the out of battery theory, go back to the range and ask for the guy with the new nickname: "lefty".
