I've got an 870 Express barrel that sticks hard when I put Fiocchi shells into it. The go in fine but they need a thump of the recoil pad on the ground to pull the empties out. To me that's bad. It messes up the shooting and it's hell on the extractor hooks. I don't feed it with that ammo any more. Although if I hone out the chamber a little then I may try the Fiocchi again.
On the other hand my Cowboy Action SxS is honed out enough that the same ammo can be shucked out with nothing more than a little over the shoulder jerk of the gun.
