With all due respect, the Savage 24 does not have a "weak chamber" because of the ejector. With the action closed a properly fitted ejector has very little clearance and any split rim gases will be deflected tot he side by that massive standing breech.
Yes, a split rim can happen with any gun and any RF ammo, but with a properly chambered rifle in good repair the gas will be deflected to the side by the breech block or bolt. I'll bet dollars to doughnuts your old RB was a take down, had a worn breech block screw and that it didn't have correct headspace. I'm sorry you got injured, that part of the reason we're al supposed to be wearing safety glasses when ever we shoot any gun or work with any tool. But there is no more danger from a properly set up RB or falling block or rocking block RF action that's in good condition than there is from a $2500.00 Cooper bolt gun. OTH, take any rifle that's been abused or worn a bit and add in some less than trustworthy ammo and you have the makings for an accident.
