NF, maybe it's my eyes but the extractor on the right seems a bit smaller than the Monster one on the left?
Why not pull them off and measure their dimensions, esp around the radius and head-piece. Also measure the gripping-gap (don't know the real name of that gripper-slot...)
If it's just an extractor problem, IIRC Precision Firearms and a few other places (maybe Brownells) have extractors you can order as a separate piece. They should specify to be a "6.5 Grendel" extractor, not just a 556 or whatever.
While they are apart clean the slot where they rest, also what is the status of the spring and o-ring. For extractors that have trouble sliding over the case bottom you can try taking off that o-ring (leave the spring in!) and cycle without it.
As a trouble shoot, you could also maybe also put the Monster extractor in place on the right (I would do this before taking out the o-ring, only trouble shoot one change at a time).
