Im confused. Are you cyclying spent brass through your gun? And was the brass ever fired in this rifle ?

The 06 was fired in a tikka i owned. The 308 was reloads bit they didnt have the marks before being cycled in the gun

Why are you cycling spent brass through your gun? Unless your are reloading and checking resized brass to ensure a good chamber fit, otherwise you should not be doing this especially with brass thats been fired in another chamber. Forget whatever your doing and go shoot the gun.

Not sure why you are doing this but if the gun you fired this brass in has a larger chamber then the bolt will be tough to close and the bolt face can leave marks on the brass. When you go shoot these guns, see if the spent brass looks the same, it probably won't.

No. The cases don’t like faulty or damaged in any way. It’s most likely either an engraving error (machines do that sometimes) or recycled brass

They were mark free before hand

Are you talking about the circle scratched on the bottom around the primer? Prolly just from the bolt rotating. You worded and pictured this in a really bad way no one understands and thinks your shoving the wrong rounds in the gun

Ejections cycles are violent. Brass is soft.
