I have an 870 express with a factory extended tube magazine on the shotgun (6+1 capacity). Sometimes while loading the tube to it's maximum capacity it will just completely stop after the 5th shell is pushed in. The 5th shell will feed normally, but I cannot load the 6th shell at all, it won't even start. I tried a different aftermarket follower, but that didn't help. When I unload a few shells and try again to load up to max, it will usually go without a fight.
I suppose it could be spring bind or the edge of the shell catching on the seam between the tube and extended tube.
Any ideas as to what is going on here; and if so, how can it be remedied?
