I very much doubt you did any damage to the rifle.
I'd give the chamber a cleaning, tho- you'll have some burnt powder residue in there.
And, you might wanna take the bolt apart and clean it, too- some of the bits that came back towards you may have ended up there.
Also a good reminder for everyone as to why you should always wear shooting glasses.
