From the picture, I agree with the author, double charge.

just glancing at the pictures im guessing the round was way overloaded

The way that brass is stretched and expanded at the base it almost looks like it fired out of battery?

That's what I'm thinking as well.

I had an issue with my CZ and Laxammo reloads.

I was shooting dueling trees and quite a few times the round kept the slide out of battery. Two of those looked they had light primer strikes.

Could have almost been an OOB discharge.

I say out of battery discharge at this point. Even a double charge of powder would be unlikely to do this in new brass. I like being my own quality control manager.

Out of battery- the raised ring at the base of the brass is a give away. The brass blew out at the weak point.

And I do not agree with the article- the loaded rounds cannot be weighed to determine the powder charge weight. There's a lot of variation in the weight of 9mm brass cases.
