RRA 18" Varmint A4

This may be a tired question or common problem. If it is, I apologize. This is my first AR so I’m just now trying to figure out what is “common” and what isn’t.

Anyway, this is a spankn’ new rifle with about 100rnds of Black Hills down the tube. Every round I fired looked like this.. The accuracy was great but the cases look pretty bad.

What is causing this case deformation?
Is it bad?
Why am I getting powder burns all the way down the length of the case?
Can I contine shooting the rifle or does it need attention?
Is this normal?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Bouncing off the case deflector?

Not sure about the powder.
