Hi,
This might sound like a noob question but what causes cases to be hard to eject or remove from a cylinder?

The last 3 revolvers I have borrowed have suffered from this problem and my old Performance Center 686 that I had in the UK never, ever suffered from this all the years that I had it, I could open the cylinder and with a very slight touch of the ejector rod dump all 6 immediately and use a Jet Loader to quickly reload which is a must for timed events.

I appreciate that they expand, but is there any mechanical problem that can cause this?

Thanks in advance,
Cheers
G
