If you are cleaning your extractors, make sure to keep track of which one goes on which side. It won't eject properly if you mix them up.
That's because only one is an extractor/ejector,the other is the cartridge guide.Did you clean out the relief cut grooves on either side of the chamber breech face for the extractor/guides while you were cleaning?
I thought I'd give you a couple days to figure it out before posting.I have seen the coil springs in these style of bolts so compacted with crud that they were basically solid with no movement what so ever.
