Is this a carbon ring or just degraded edge of the end of chamber?

That’s an extremely dirty chamber and yes, it’s the neck bore step at the end of the neck that’s eroded and rounded over.

Do you think its salvageable or should I just replace it?

Is that the chamber? It looks like (very dirty) rifling to my (uneducated) eyes
