Unhappy 870 Jamming

alright so i have a Remington 870 and it continues to jam on the extraction of the shell after the shot. It wont jam if the shell has not been shot, extraction and ejection is perfect.

I did some looking around and i have found people saying that the 870's love the cheap federal bird shot (100 for $20) so i switched to that and it is SO much better but it still happens.

I clean the gun after every time shooting and it is spotless when im done. I love the gun so i'm not going to give up on it just getting slightly frustrated. If this has happened to you with your 870 or you have an idea of how to fix it please chime in. whenever i think of a pump action shotgun i think of indestructible and consistent. I cant let a bird get away because of a jam. Thanks in advance for your input!
