[QUOTE="4ked Horn, post: 57331, member: 11"] Hi Jer [ QUOTE ] Me thinks this is more of a fouling issue then a lube issue. [/ QUOTE ] This is what I am quickly begining to believe is the problem. Mostly because the gun fails to cycle even after the gun warms back up to room temp when the bolt is pulled to the rear and released by hand. However I am currently experimenting with using more lube (Remoil) than normal in an attempt to keep this excessive fouling broken up. [ QUOTE ] Change to a cleaner burning powder first. [/ QUOTE ] I don't reload steel but my friend Gonehuntingagain said that the guys on a waterfoul forum he visits seem to think Federals "super steel" loads are burning real clean. I will try these as soon as I run low on the ammo I already have (soon). [ QUOTE ] If that doesn't work, increase the port pressure. [/ QUOTE ] What is this and how would I go about doing it? [ QUOTE ] Maybe a recoil spring change is in order???? [/ QUOTE ] It's on the list. Thanks for the info. I have never heard of "port pressure" so I am interested to hear what you have to share about this. [/QUOTE]
