Re: AR 15 brass ejection marks
Mine does the same thing on most of my brass but don't worry the sizer will remove some of the dent and the rest will not make any real difference in your guns shooting.

Re: AR 15 brass ejection marks
It is caused by the brass hitting the deflector behind the ejection port. You can put some self adhesive velcro(soft side) on the reflector to cushion it. And no, it won't cause any harm to shoot the brass.

cut a coil off your ejector spring and they wont hit the deflector

Re: AR 15 brass ejection marks
One of the things you might do is change out to a heavier buffer and slow the bolt down, possibly change the spring (like red springs or Tubbs) out too and/or use an adjustable gas block. It sounds like you're over gassed if it's really denting the case.

Reload and shoot it. Won't hurt a thing. Even after they are reloaded and shot you will still see a smudge from each dent left by the deflector from past firings, I count the marks to see how many times the lot of brass has been shot.
