You could about answer your own question by not tumbling 5 cases, and see if it's the tumbling causing issues.
Has anyone noticed this with Lapua SR Creedmoor brass?

If I'm wrong I'll stand corrected,I've always worked with bigger stuff,.001 makes a difference sometime,you have done this longer than myself,,Capt. Dan
I have determined, with the help of ALL of you, that they are being peened by the SS pins. It's very hard to notice with a magnifying glass even. I did use a inside VLD chamfer tool and was able to confirm that the pin damage would go away with a few turns. Therefor the complete length of the inside neck was not effected as I had previously thought. And since I have annealed and resized there are no signs of the cases being pinned. Thanks to everyone's inputs my problem is solved. Many thanks guys.
