So will it bind if you dry fire (on #4 wall anchors/snap caps)?
How about if you load only every other round?
Has the gun been apart for trigger work /cleaning at all? (i.e. Could there be something INSIDE the gun gumming up the action.)
Can you see daylight between the cylinder face and forcing cone when it binds?

Sounds silly I know but as a test engineer I can tell you that every bit of evidence can help in an odd diagnosis like this.
