Tikka T3x Ranch. Weird problem

[Gstew1930]

Can someone take a look at this & see what you think? This is all fired brass in my tikka 223. The case mouth is getting dented on one side. What would cause this?

During extraction when it clears the barrel it gets whacked into the side of the action. Not uncommon and not just with a tikka either.

My Tikka .223 brass did the same, no biggie when you run it through the dies.
