Some additional thoughts:

Check the breech face for roughness; the case rim must slide smoothly up under the extractor.

Check the extractor and see if the hook is properly shaped, and is rounded and slightly open at the bottom. Again, the case must slip under it. A sharp edge will prevent that.

You didn't say the make of your gun; some are better made than others. A few makes have simply been atrocious.

P.S. Don't let me get started on brand new guns that won't work without some kind of magic and expensive "break in" period. I tend to get very irritated.
