If the cartridge on the left is the one that misfired , it does look like a light strike by the firing pin. I'd shoot the rifle to rule out any problems there ( gunked up firing pin, weak spring ). If the rifle functions o..k. after multiple shots could be bad primer in the misfired round . If it appears not to be a rifle issue I'd let Federal know what happened and see what their response is.
