They almost all have that mark it's the ejector slot (kimber is controlled round feed similar to a mauser). There's not edge etc can't feel it with a needle tip. The photos exaggerate it as I played with contrast to make it visible the last those two are however the most visible of the bunch and not a load I will be repeating due to velocitys being to high. The fact probably the 3rd worst mark is on the far right case which is the lowest load as is 2.5grains under book max and according to quickload would only be around 50kpsi and almost perfectly predicts my velocity when tuned to the peterson brass case capacity.
