Or, at least it would be very stiff closing the bolt. Looks like an extraction issue. "After all, it is not the killing that brings satisfaction; it is the contest of skill and cunning.

Bought the gun brand new and the first case that was fired through the last case that fired through it looked exactly like that. You gonna pull them pistols, or whistle Dixie?

I have to use an expander to round them back so they can fit in a sizing die. As said semi autos do that almost every time. Full power semiautos are rough on brass. I've found out that maybe five reloads are the best to hope for. Every time I reload for the semi autos I use a dremel tool and cut a small notch in the case rim. Four notches means five times fired. Time to go to the brass bucket. Usually the primer well has expanded on most of them by then. Loose spent primer parts in a semi auto action can cause surprising results.

If it is then take it to a gunsmith to have it checked. "After all, it is not the killing that brings satisfaction; it is the contest of skill and cunning.

It is by far the smoothest bolt I have ever worked and has been in the gun cabinet for 15 years. Win. Model 70 270 I prolly bolted to hard expecting it to be not so smooth and easy...
