There is an entire subset of the internet on this problem. It appears to center around Remington trying to save money. See if your extractor says made in China or hecho in mexico

Yes, have the same issue. Just thought it was because of the cheap ammo.

Mine is kinda old, but I’ve never had that problem. Bought it in 82? Is yours fairly new?

Yeah, I've heard there are some issues with the newer models. I'm not sure if they can be worked by a gun smith to correct the problem, but i'd suspect it can be corrected. check with a good and I mean good, gunsmith.

That's probably it. Remington's quality-control went lower than a Somali's IQ around 2004 or so.

It's likely cheap ammo, combined with a dip in Remington's quality control. Buy a box of expensive shells and see if that improves things.

Good casings made from quality materials will expand under pressure, and then shrink back a little, making extraction easy. Cheap materials expand and stay expanded, and if the chamber is rough they can really stick in there. A bad extractor can make things worse.

OP, It sounds like the 870 isn't going completely into battery or lock-up before you fire it. When is the last time you cleaned it down to the component parts? Shotgun powder rarely completely burns. As you eject cases any unburned powder will dump in to the action. Over time it will jam it. I'd start with a thorough disassembly, CLP cleaning, then reassess. While you have it apart inspect the action (slide arms & bolt assy) for any burrs.
