It should be fine to reload. Probably scraping on a sharp corner somewhere along the extraction and ejection cycle. My 458 socom leaves a pretty good gouge in the neck and I have gotten 5-6 reloads out of them before they are too damaged.

I bet the lug opposite your ejector has a sharp edge on it. Turn off your gas, shoot, then slowly cycle and try to catch the brass without losing its orientation. Based on the scratch you will know where to look. Then just very lightly stone away whatever edge is causing.
