Since its every other round or so it just maybe the cheap ammo your using I would try another brand of good ammo first before touching or changing anything. You did lube the bolt carrier & bolt and inside the reciever with a gun grease right before you shot it? BigBill

Sounds like an extractor/ejector problem?
The claw is hanging on to the shell instead of kicking it out.
