Today I received my G980SE and I'm having the same issues OP has/had. I tried Lubricating the bolt and bolt head with froglube, and even tried a thinner lubricant like silicone grease, even though the latter isn't all that good for metal to metal lubrication.

Sadly my issues haven't been solved. However, I've found that the issue is most likely caused by the extractor. The spring on the extractor is very strong, and it takes quite a bit of force to be able to rotate it sideways to allow the rim of the shell to hook behind it. This means that the shells don't get gripped by it, they get pushed further forward instead. This is the reason shells get jammed in the chamber.

I'll try and see if I can replace the spring by a slightly weaker one without damaging the bolt. Will report back with my results.

Cheers,
Danny
