    Brass has cracked and burnt through during firing,

    Could be many things

    Oversize chamber

    Cracks in the brass during manufacture

    Brittle work hardened brass

    Too much pressure

    or all of the above.

    I've seen this in PMC brass a few times over the years.

    Cheers
