Yes, the bolt isn't aligned well with the barrel extension. I'd guess the extension is the first thing to check; I'd pull the barrel and take it to a gunsmith who could spin it in a lathe to see if the extension is straight. Even if it is only out by a small amount, guessing maybe less than .010", it could make a huge difference in the lugs seating evenly.

Don't think the hot loads or unlock time could be doing this.
