I have a Remington 870 that seems to be giving me some trouble.
But I am not sure I have reasonable expectations.
If I try to chamber the next round as fast as I can - and I am making sure I am smooth while not short stroking it - the shell gets hung up/delayed on about 1 inch into the forward stroke.
If I pull back to the rear and go forward again I can usually chamber the round in one try - sometimes takes two tries to complet forward stroke..
If I go slow it seems to work ok.
Its worse with 3” shells than 2 ¾ shells.
Is this normal/what I should expect or do I have a real problem?
