It won't be a prohibitively costly repair. I say get kit fixed before you fire it again. The blowback into the frame from a pierced primer can blow out a chunk of the head of the stock.

Glenn Fewless,(apologies to him if I slaughtered the spelling off his last name, I'm too lazy to go look up his last receipt) former president of the Riflemakers Guild, is the top Laser Welding gunsmith. That is who Breck Gorman uses, and he did a phenominal job on a set of D4 barrels for me.

Dean, that’s what happened. The blowback blew a piece of the stock off.
The stock was repaired but I do t have enough knowledge about the hammer and workings of doubles to know what’s ok to live with and what needs to be addressed.

A now deceased friend was over at the Gunclub a few years back shooting a Fox Sterlingworth with Gaugemates in it shooting 410’s . He pierced a primer and as you said blew a chunk out .
