Scarring/melting on bolt lugs?

Just got back from the range today with my Tikka T3 Lite in .270WIN. Was cleaning it and noticed a very strange scar on one of the bolt lugs. I swear I don't recall seeing that there before, though I suppose it's technically possible I somehow overlooked it when I bought the gun (it's used, bought at Cabella's).
See pictures attached here.
Any ideas what this is or how it came to be? It looks to me that the metal melted in that spot?
