Well......even after getting all the factory grease/oil out of it.....it still doesnt like the cold and cycles slow. Shooting 3.5s BB Black Clouds with a Patternmaster choke. It swings well , crushes the birds and folds em up......when it works properly.
Im gonna put some heavier Wolfe springs in them and will see what that does. In addition to a stronger spring ive learned the rear corners of the bolt carrier are square but the aft end of the groove it rides in is round. I need to file the bolt carrier a little . Will see how that works. Not sure what to think if thats just part of the break in or what.
Took it apart and cleaned it again last night. My gut is telling me a few things.
1) its a really simple gun. With proper break in there should be no problems
2) until broke in, it may actually need to be run a little more wet.
3) it did not like the very fine dust flying around.
4) lastly after re rereading the manual last night. We may not have been loading it in the correct way. Not sure if it makes a difference but next week we will load it as recommended.
