Polymer tips will solve this problem it you're that concerned about it. I don't see it as a problem.
I have a Tikka T3 Lite as well and have noticed the same on some lead tipped rounds like Partitions and believe bronko got it right...the ejector spring is just a little on the strong side...don't I don't believe it is a problem either.
