I've got a round just like that on my kitchen counter waiting for me to find my camera. I think it was WWB, I know it was fired in a 5.56 chamber. It's ripped off right at where the annealing ends. The round before it (the one that got ripped in half) fired fine and I never did find the back half of the brass. What really gets me is that the bullet is now setback a little and wiggles just a bit. Also one side of the brass has a long scratch running the length of the case from the half brass down (if that makes any sense). I'll try to post pics as soon as I find my camera.
