There should be only one collar on the ejector. It sounds like the extra collar was installed by someone who cut the ejector spring too short.

Also, to cure your misfeeds, make sure you are only using round nose bullets, and better yet, if you are a Cowboy Action Shooter and a handloader, load
.357 cases to .38 special velocities. The shorter .38 case has a tendancy to jam when cycled rapidly under the clock.

Also, on your nomenclature, the chamber is in the barrel, and you can't get two dummies into the chamber at the same time. I think you meant to say
"the receiver" instead of chamber.
