Does Primary extraction just suddenly occur or is a problem that is there from new, like in this case started off fine then went to pieces with some brass and not others.

It will be a contributing factor. Likely a combination of poor primary extraction, possibly dirty chamber, oversize brass/undersize chamber, hot loads. It will be at least two of those problems with the major being primary extraction
