Got a buddy of mine that has a Armalite AR10, and while firing it the other day, i happened to notice dents the whole way around on the shoulder of every round fired. I first started to think it was the case OAL but everything checked ok. Could this be a factory headspace issue or just a manufacturing error with the chamber area itself?

Just a thought here on this. Without actually looking at the rifle itself... but do you think in could have anything to do with the ejection of the rifle?

Hitting the brass deflector type of thing?

Can you put up a picture of the damage?
