dirty sliding extractor can rub/drag as you pull back( sticking out from the bolt
The extractor is gonna have nothing to do with the bolt pulling back hard.

OMG, the famous "click" appears on yet another thread.
If a case head swells so much that extraction is hard you have too hot a load or too soft brass.
It has nothing to do with the sizing BEFORE shooting. You can the bejesus out of a case and it still will grow to fit the chamber.
Doubt it ? Get some small base dies and use the same load and brass.

Google alex wheeler bullet seating depth and watch the video. That will show you waht this "click" is. That will at least give you a base to make your arguments off of.
Not quite, you are waiting, no one else." The world waits."
Hi Sherm, so we're talking a diameter measurement of the case with the caliper 2/10ths ahead of the extraction groove near the web, right?As Milo stated measure at the .200 line on fired and sized brass.
No worries, Milo. It happens. Thanks for your input!YZ 80, I apologize for letting this get this far, try some suggestions one at a time and let us know what worked.

OR you could all go back and read Pet Loads on how to use case head measurement to evaluate pressure signs.
Well except you are wrong. You can have a click even with the firing pin pulled from the bolt. Just the slight stick of something giving an interference in the chamber can give you the click at the end of primary extraction.As I said many pages ago, the click is the sound of primary extraction and sear reset ---- nothing to do w/size of case head.
