Glock 20 issues?

I've started getting these small nicks in the rims of high-power 10 mm cases--should I be concerned? I have a spring kit when when I use the higher 22 or 24 lb springs I occasionally have issues with feeding from the mag--the 20 lb always feeds and fires reliably but after about 500 rounds or so--including very warm hand-loads--these nicks have appeared on the rim case edges.

Any thoughts?

 
Your picture is very blurry, but I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that those are nick marks from sharp (new?) magazine feed lips, and are therefore probably nothing to worry about.
 
It's the small dark indentation in the middle of the top-most circle. What I think is odd is that it ran fine with no case damage for the first 500 rounds or so. I'm not a semi-auto pistol guy for the most part--so I was wondering if this might be a sign of something potentially bad. thanks for the response.
 
Looks normal to me. It's from the extractor claw. Not sure if you reload or not, but the more times you shoot and then reload a case, the more the case gets dinged up like that. I have some .45 acp cases that are pretty chewed up around the case head.

I do reload--but this particular case was factory-fresh Sig Sauer ammo (good stuff at a really good price, BTW). I figured it was the extractor most likely--I'm just wondering why it started up after 500 rounds or so. I'm not seeing any pressure sign problems--even with some of my top-end hotter hand loads.
