Three on left are first three that fired correctly. Right are the two with bulge/split and off center hits on primer.

Do you care to take a more clear picture of the writing on the base of those cases? Bet you a dollar you have the incorrect caliber and the whole case expanded to the 7mm chamber. There is an obvious rim Ø difference, and the two on the right don't look belted. That would explain the off-center primer hits and why your magazine feed lips would not retain the cartridges.

I can't get another pic- had to bum a smart phone to take these. I'm looking at the casings and they are the same.

When you say they are the same, do you mean they say the same thing? If you put a good and bad case bottom-to-bottom, are they the same size?

It looks like they would have even ejected.

The two damaged cases are definately not 7mm Rem Mag cases. NO BELT at bottom of case.
Incorrect ammo, maybe 7mm Mauser ammo???

In both photos the two shells on the right appear to have a smaller diameter base than the three on the left. To me there is a noticeable difference. The cases look different standing up also. The shoulders look to be different as well as the width of the cases.
