I recently fired my Rem 700 PSS DM and had a hard time extracting the brass. Once I got it out, the brass had some minor pits in it. I took it home and cleaned the chamber really well and it looks fine. Fired again, same thing. I've got about 800 rounds through this rifle and have never had a problem. I clean the chamber, lug recesses and bolt after every firing. I use clean patches to wipe out the chamber really well. I normally clean the barrel when I notice accuracy starts to fall off.
I use Imperial Case Wax for sizing and wipe each round off with a clean towel after sizing.
I've checked head space, good to go. I looked in the chamber the best I could and I see no abrasions, rust, pits, etc. The extractor and ejector look fine and it will extract unfired brass well.
I'm stumped. Probably something simple I'm overlooking.
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks...
