If it's a Remington RR prefix serial number than you could possibly have a Primary extraction issue. Has nothing to do with the extractor, it's all bout the timing and cam over of the bolt cycle. Won't show on new brass and only shows on fired brass. I've had the issue in 2 of my Remingtons and both were RR prefix serial#s. Can also happen on older actions when you have them Blueprinted.

Interesting. I was unaware and will check later. So your saying the serial number prefix will read RR? Possibly cam timing issue. Okay, thank You
Correct. RR serial numbered actions are notoriously known for PE issues. It can also show up when an action has been blueprinted as it can slightly change the PE timing.
Here's a chat about it.
Rem 700 extraction Issue
Wondering if anyone has had any extraction problems with a Rem 700 action? I have a 30-06 shooting Lapua brass with a stout load. Rounds chamber fine both. Bolt lifts up just fine after firing (bolt lift feels same if I fire the round or don't fire the round). BUT, when I try to pull the bolt...

I had mine fixed by Long Rifles Inc. aka LRI. Some Smiths can do it and some can't. LRI is well versed in fixing it if that's your issue.

At least you know what it is and can address it properly now! Good luck!
When I had mine fixed I also had them add a M16 type extractor to the bolt. I'll dig one of my rigs out a little later and send you a pic.
