"There's room for the (shell) holder to cover a portion of the primed case get a bit of debris in between and a KB could realisticly happen."

Concevible yes, realistically no, IMHO.

Every shell holder I've ever seen has a relief channel cut to allow extra clearance for a moderately high primer so a primer that could be hit by the overlap would have to be very high indeed. If so the round would have had to be forced into the shell holder to begin with so any ignition event would have to be due to gross user negligence, NOT the primer OR the shell holder, as such.

Anyone claiming a loose 'bullet' being carried in a pocket or bag went off and penetrated into a leg will likely tell other lies too.
