I purchased a nickel boron .308 BCG that is "match grade". I want to know, am I being overly sensitive or is this bolt not match grade? There are heavy machine marks on the bolt face. All are in a circle. I know in bolt rifles, I had all my bolt faces squared and lugs lapped. I check all my other ar bolts and I have 3 .308 bcg's in other rifles and none have these machine marks. The picture does not show them that well but I will post it anyways.

Another picture

Here is another picture. I feel that with the AR crazy that went on, some parts scrapped through the quality control that shouldn't have. Before I start complaining though I want to hear some opinions on whether this is fine or should I have a reason to be upset/disappointed?

Once you click on the pictures, you can zoom in a couple times even closer by clicking them again and again.
