I noticed the action face on my new AI has a some small dings where the barrel is shouldered.
Do you all think this is something to be concerned about or am I way too picky? If I run a razor blade across the face it doesn't catch at all.

No, it shouldn't be a problem, I would maybe run a flat stone to remove any high spots but not a very aggressive stone and not more than a couple of strokes. If the stone shows any high spots just keep stroking a bit. Those tiny things are not gonna raise much material and typical barrel torque should kinda wipe it right off.
 
I have similar marks on my AX and my AT. Not sure if I did it, I know I didn't on my AT, but for me, not a big deal.

As long as they are flat, nothing to worry about.
 
As long as it’s not raised I don’t see how it would cause an issue, good thing to document before you fire it though.
