The way Remington 700's eject, with the spring plunger makes the end of the case hit the end of the barrel and the edge of the action. As long as your cases are the correct length I don't think you have a problem. You can put your finger along side the bolt and hold the case straight as you open the action. Hold until it clears the action and check the mouth of the case for a rub.
Hope this helps

I just went through this same phenomenon, But to a more extreme degree. My 6br cases were coming out of the chamber with a flare on one side of the mouth. I held the case with my finger to keep it coming out of the chamber as strait as possible, but still had the flare. The ejector spring was so stiff that it was actually cocking the loaded rounds to one side of the chamber:,,I personally like my rounds to be centered in the chamber
).I posted the problem here and got the ejector response from a couple of posters. So I took out the ejector but running pretty hot loads would lead to brass cutting off the base of the case from the sharp hole on the boltface where the ejector used to be. So I shortened the spring and now have the ejector back in place. The rifle is shooting great now, so I guess what I'm trying to say is you may want to fix your extractor problem because the darn thing may be causing your reloads to be off center with the bore axis.

lopsided and lead to full length resizing????????????
anyway, i'm getting under 1/2 moa groups at 100 yds and don't want to change anything.

article about "richards" custom rifles. that devcon is the only way to fly. did a beatiful job
