Shell or extractor pRoblem

I've only seen that with some cheap shells, forget which brand...in my case, it wasn't as bad and was still ejecting fine, but I did see some what I considered 'excessive' extraction marks similar to your first pic.
I've since done some polishing, including the chamber - is it possible the shells are 'sticking' in a rough chamber, thus getting 'ripped up'?

Will check next time I shoot the 930, but don't recall seeing this for a while now, since my first time shooting the gun (now at ~700 rounds or so, no issues).

It was not coming out at all, what did you use to polish? Im thinking of using the green yellow scotch pads. I cleaned it before I shoot it, maybe there was excess oil in the chamber to make it stick alil.

My first bet is the low grade Win shells. I've read lots of complaints about problems with it. I had a Rem 1100 rip the entire head off, leaving the hull in the chamber.

That's even worst then mine, I just wanted to function test it before I shoot the good stuff.

I used fine steel wool wrapped around a bore brush with a small amount of polishing compound.  Others have used a bore mop + compound, among others.  

Be careful though, and definitely do not use a small wheel (< chamber size) on a Dremel - the intent is to remove imperfections, and polish smooth..using a small 'spot polishing tool' is unlikely to polish evenly.

Couldn't the steel wool rust out the barrel?

Only if you leave a wad of it on the barrel…

Clean out the chamber and try to different ammo (Wal-mart’s Federal  bulk pack is the best to the cheap stuff, Winchester AA or Remington Nitro is the good stuff).

That Winchester silver rimmed “Universal “ (and their other similar promo loads) will jam in a single shot.  Loose metal rims that expand and wedge in the chamber, soft plastic that grabs the chamber walls…there are not many guns that like that ammo.

Get a turbo brush. The plastic buildup in the chamber is invisible, and tenacious.

No joke. I had a break-open single-shot that started giving me troubles because it would not break-open after firing. After about every shot I would have to rap the bottom of the receiver with the palm of my hand and let the barrel drop open by gravity. After cleaning and polishing and oiling, I finally did what I should have done to begin with, I tried something other than the cheap Winchester "Universal" shells from Walmart. A different brand of shells "fixed" my problem. I believe what was happening is the head of the shell was separating from the hull and was pinching the action closed.

I had the same problem with the walmart bulk pack winchester shells in mine.
Switched to federal and everything else and problem went away.
I really like my 930

Thanks for that one - didn't think the hull was also adding to the problem, but definitely seen enough having issues with the bulk Win. packs..

Yeah it hand cycles fine, I guess the pressure from shooting it. Expanding and sticking.
