I have 2 sticky chambers (extraction) on my Single Seven. Mild cast loads, the other 5 pop out with little effort. Problem and solution?
Mine were really tight.

I'd look real critically in the light for roughness.

Brass expands to grip the chambers, then hopefully, relaxes to release for extraction. Is the chamber "tighter" than others. You can test this by trying other cases fired from other chambers. It may be as simple as polishing out some rough spots with Flitz compound, or sending it back to Ruger, for them to chase the chamber with the reamer again.
the chambers just need polishing to get some roughness out

It is not unusual for one or two chambers to be a bit tight. The cylinder itself could easily have a hot spot where the metal is harder than the rest of the cylinder. This causes problems. If you have a Dremel tool with a polishing bit then put some polish on it and polish out the chambers. If all else fails send it to me and I will polish out the chambers and get it right back to you the same day. No charge.
Thanks

I will try the Flitz and the other suggestions, shoot it again and if that doesn't help I will send it to GNR. Thanks Gary, that's awesome!
