I had a new rifle do that to me one time. Didnt clean all of the heavy lube out of the bolt, and when I squeezed the trigger the firing pin didnt move and fire the round. When I started to open the bolt the pin came loose and fired the round. It was aimed down range at all times and never at risk of firing in an uncontrolled direction.
I cleaned the bolt super good and relubed the firing pin and spring. Never had that issue again and had that gun for many years.
Might want to pull the bolt and see if there is something going on there. Glad no one was hurt BTW
