Were there any other pressure signs or was it just splitting the case? How many rounds split? Was it just your rifle?
If every other brand of ammo through the rifle has been fine my first call would be to Hornady. If you have 10,000 rounds on hand from the same lot, I wouldn't want 10,000 rounds for worthless ammo.
I don't remember where it was but there was a problem some months ago of Hornady ammo in .223 I think, that was having a problem. The ammo was loaded by another company for Hornady not sure if this is something similar.
