I'm not having any problems extracting a unfired cartridge, just fired cartridges. I took a look at it last night and it is definitely leaving a long scratch on one side, so apparently it has a burr in the chamber. I am going to try the steel wool trick and if it doesn't fix it, I'll send it back to Remington.
By the way, I've owned a pile of Remington Model 700s and I've never had any problems. This is the first time I've ever had a problem with one.
