I got the .433 RD PC 240 grainers dialed into a clover leaf at fifty yards over IMR 4227. The alloy was range scrap. My issue is that a few pieces of brass got stuck in the chamber after they were fired. I think the extractor claw didnt grab on to them enough. I had to bump the stuck brass out with a small screw driver.....What went wrong?

New gun?
While it could be a extractor (a common problem with Marlins), I had an issue with one where the barrel shank's extractor seat wasn't completely machined causing that issue.
