    Things to check:1.Extractor,.., shape, and free movement. Compare rim shouldn't be bent, or ripped.2.OAL of fired shell. Should be 3.5" no more. If longer hull is pulling out of brass, and sticks in chamber.3.Measure unfired brass/hull OD's.Might find some oversized. If chamber is "tight" they can stick.
    Happy Bullet Holes!
