Guys -
I tried 40 rounds of Wolf and all stayed in the chamber, a few days ago I got ahold of some Hornady 123gr Amax factory ammo and experienced the same stuck case issue.
The barrel is an ARP 264 lbc with a .297 neck , a guy with a caliper took a measurement for me of the fired case (neck) and it was .300 .
Original poster - Have you tried a different extractor spring? A stronger one to be more specific?
This was suggested to me as a possible fix based on the thought that upon combustion the bolt extractor was slipping of the rim of the case.
I have another extractor spring in the mail on its way to me and will report back the results.
Let me know what you figure out with the Wolf ammo in your 264lbc
