That's a little more than tiny, IMHO. My AR never makes an indent that deep.As was said above, that is normal for a military rifle with a floating firing pin. Chambering a round will leave a tiny dimple on the primer.
You can get firing pin protrusion gauges and check against the specs for your rifle....it means you'd likely have to pull your bolt assembly to check it, however... I've had that problem with mixed bolt parts (e.g., adding another firing pin to a bolt assembly).I was is hand cycling some 30 caliber carbine to my M1.
On my third mag my wife asked me what is that noise and I said I'm testing my magazines for function in one of my rifles. She said you're going to have another accidental discharge like you did in 2003. I said no way I've got the safety on. I looked at the bottom of the ammo in every one of them had an indention in the primer. In the picture below you can see the ones that I ran through or on the bottom compared to the ones on the top and every primer that I ran through has an indention. I don't think I will be testing my magazines by hand cycling anymore. Haven't gotten out to the range do this covid. But as you can see this looks dangerous.
