    That happened from just one primer? Find any other ones like that?

    Just out of curiosity have you checked your firing pin protrusion?

    This. How hot are your hand loads would be my next suspect but I'd say Tucsonan has it pegged. kwg

    I've gotten pierced primers in my handloads using Rem 6 1/2 primers. What primers did you use?

    Would check firing pin tip as that part gets the escaping gas from a pierced primer first. If its rough and pointy, rather than rounded and smooth, expect more pierced primers.
