I own 3 M\N's and none of them do it. I would suggest making a witness mark on a few cartridges and loading them single-shot so they all index to the same spot and see exactly where the bulge is occurring. If the bulge always shows up in the same spot, I'd inspect the chamber very closely for anything out of the ordinary.

if i shoot it and eject it . it's bulged . looks like it is where the ejecter fits in the reciver
Interesting. In my humble experience, I've nver seen a rifle that was supposed to eject cases that were bulged. I've seen many damage cases, but they had chamber or headspace problems and were on the verge of DANGEROUS or crappy ammo, which might be dangerous.
I'd not fire another round through them until you get answers.
think i will take the gun and some of the cases to the gunshop were i got them . I will see what they think. thanks to everyone for there advice
one thing i just noticed on the m9130. if you remove the bolt and look at the chamber were the ejector cutout is at. it is not flush with the rest of the chamber

Yes, there is a space for the ejector to move through the radial motion of locking the bolt down. If that's about where your bulge is, then no worries, especially since brass will flex and form to the chamber; with no support you'll get a bulge.
Do as toolman said and put a mark with a Sharpie or something on the case, then insert it with the mark in a known position (I hear 'up' is popular these days) and then see if that bulge matches up with the area where the ejector passes through around the rim. If so, you're pretty much in the clear. As with any good experiment, you will need at least three tests of this to reduce the error and the "confidence interval"... which I won't get into, as I learn about it in my 400-level chemistry courses.

Ya, Swede, your highjack didn't work very well. Some of us got it and so of us don't. They just tell me I am full of it!
