Way overpressure. Cratered primers, expanded case head, brass flowing into the ejector hole. Not safe to shoot.
I don’t think it’s overpressure. The rounds with primers, they are only slightly flattened. The ejector stamping is present, but again, I’ve seen worse.
His rifle is different, or perhaps the particular 4 boxes he grabbed were different. Have you tried any other ammo in your rifle?My brother decided to go shooting this morning. He has a Savage 10/110 elite. He took my ammo box with him thinking it was his. He is keeping his rifle and ammo in my safe while his wife redecorates their house. He shot 4 boxes with no problem.
How is that possible?

Either way, a thorough cleaning of your rifle is in order to eliminate the possibility of a fouling issue causing the problem. I would soak a .30 cal brush in either brake parts cleaner or starting fluid (both very effective carbon and grease solvents) and work over the first 10 or so inches of your bore. Follow this with a .45 caliber brush in the chamber area. Follow this with a tight fittiing "shotgun" patch in the chamber area, and a dry .30 cal patch through the bore.
