I agree with you John. I have seen these kind of mishaps(not on lugers) when the loader is using a very fast powder like Titegroup that has a very low loft, and even a max charge is a very small amount of powder in the case. It is easy to double or even triple the charge on some cases and have no overflow of powder. Fast powders don't play well when this occurs.
Also, it could be just a flaw in the forks from years of shooting hot loads, and finally just "gave up". I am not sure that I want to see the shooters face, as it may well have taken the brunt of the toggle train coming back. A bad scenario all the way around.
