First thoughts are that it needs a good chamber cleaning. If the casing comes out that rough, I suspect the chamber is dirty or not polished. Also it may be too light. I can shoot CCI in standard velocity now, but that was only after hundreds of rounds through it.

I purchased the gun in December 2015 and it has 3500 rounds through the barrel. I am using CCI Blazer 40 grain 1235 FPS ammo.
I clean the gun each time after I shoot it with Hoppes Number 9 with a patch and brass bore brush. I pay special attention to cleaning the chamber, feed ramp and the ejector claw.
What do you mean by the chamber may not be polished and it may be too light?
Today I shot at the range and I was careful not to let my thumbs touch the slide when firing and I had no failure to eject issues. I will continue to watch my thumbs in the future hoping that is an easy fix.
Thanks for the info in your second post too!
