    Did you shoot reloads? J/k.

    I have the same Ruger model with maybe 1,500 rounds through the pipe and no nicks. I'm interested to find out what happened? Maybe contact Ruger?

      The edge there is sharp and thin so it's probably just a harmless burr.

        Looks like a FTE caused that nick. If it doesn't affect operation then I wouldn't worry about it.

          Looks like burr from manufacture, just polish it out. Personally, I would not sweat it.

            I really doubt there is "an issue". It appears to be nothing more than cosmetic to me. I sure wouldn't waste my money sending it to anyone to fix a non existent "problem". I'd just put a million rounds through it and then, if I got bored, maybe I'd send it in for a once over.

                I've got a MKIII Target with 10,000+ rounds through it and no nicks around the ejection port. Something not right there.

                  He also has an imprint of the bolt into the barrel face. Seems like the metal wasnt hardened properly or??

                    Yep! Something's not as intended. It's your gun and may be for generations. Get it right...send it to Ruger!

                      Since your not a gunsmith,it's worth the 30 bucks to have Ruger check it out.


                      Something got jambed up in there.

                        +1 if it was a hairline crack then I would be concerned.

                          Post a pic when you can. That didn't take too long - good on Ruger.

                            Sounds like a good solution. In my experience Ruger gets the gun back in a week.
