Grid system issues in Bootstrap 3

I am new in Twitter Bootstrap and I can't figure out a particular issue in bootstrap 3 that I am running into

The code is as follows:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <title>RC</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap.min.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/custom.css">
</head>
<body>
    <div class="jumbotron">
        <div class="container-fluid">
            <div class="row">
                <div class="col-md-6 col-xs-11 col-xs-offset-1">
                    <div class="row low-gutter">
                        <div class="col-xs-5 col-sm-3">
                            <h1>
                                <span class="rc">RC</span>
                            </h1>
                        </div>

                        <div class="col-xs-7 col-sm-9">
                            <h2>
                                Text &<br />
                                Some Text
                            </h2>
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </div>

                <div class="col-md-6">
                    Some Content
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

enter image description here enter image description here

Now I understand why "Some content" is wrapping onto the next line on the smaller screen because I have used up all the 12 columns of the gird system but according to me when I switch to a wider screen I should be seeing the "Some content" on the on the right hand side of the jumbotron. What am I doing wrong? Have I messed up the grid system logic somehow?

I found the problem. The RC logo had some extra padding to it which is why the outer row could not accommodate the 12 columns. I changed the second div of the outer row to col-md-4 instead of the col-md-6 and that solved the problem. "Some content" is showing up on the right side now in wider screens.
