Default Blown primers...overpressure

I was shooting the .243 AI yesterday and had 4 rounds blow/smoke the primers. They blew holes between the primer and case. The other rounds had a slight tight bolt lift but not bad at all. All the other primers were fine, not flat at all.

What could it be? Just too much powder?

I went ahead and pulled all the bullets and I'm starting over anyway...
