looks like the primer seating rod got out of line, or pushed with to much force, or the crimp rod got off center, or to much force.   in others words the machine that seats and crimps the primers got out of line.  it should not/will not hurt in the shooting of them.  you will have to cut more of the crimp out than normal if you are going to reload them.
