It blew out on the edge (right where the cup curves), not the side. Just a tiny pinhole, but enough to flame cut the bushing. I posted a thread about (with photos) it in the Gunsmithing forum. Not sure exactly how it happened--it was either just a bad/thin/weak primer cup, worn out brass, or I did something stupid such as crushing the primer when seating it.
