The bullet won’t go far or fast. The case being lighter will swell and fly back poorly. The neck as the thinnest part of the case may split. It makes a shit grenade because the pressure spike will be low to begin with as the case swells instantly and the bullet plops out. Most likely no shrapnel.
There was a study done for fire safety in the US as to what happens in house fires when ammo cooks off. Do firefighters need to abandon the housefire etc… The tests showed the cooked off ammo barely makes its way out of the cardboard boxes they are stored in because the pressure is very low.
In the above case in the photo, some eye & ear protection and sturdy clothing and you’ll be fine 99 times out of 100.
