I saw a Ruger Super Blackhawk that was severely overloaded and ended up looking like your gun.
The owner was loading the old Keith 240 gr LSWC over 22.0 gr of 2400 load, except that he used Bullseye instead of 2400. The first round blew off the top of the chamber and the 2 adjacent chambers and sent the top strap into orbit.
I'd say Federal owes you a new gun.
