It appears the fellow needs some reloading lessons.  SEE is a possibility.  Low charge, long and perhaps rough throat.  The bullet stops for a millisecond, the powder keeps burning and pressure goes through the roof.  6.5 Swedish is notorious for this, not just in Krags, guys have blown up more than one Swedish Mauser with loads that were meant to take it easy on the old gun.
