Was at the range this morning and picked up this piece of brass. By the looks of it catastrophic case failure, case bulge, with flattened and pierced primer.

Not having had this happen, I'm curious as to what the shooter would have felt when the shot went off? Would this have likely have been noticeable in terms of increased noise or change in felt recoil?
