moss.12ga 835 ulti mag 3 1/2 " traded for it so its used. gun looks like new but was filthy from sitting. don't think its very old .The gun runs great with 2 3/4 but when I shoot 3" you have to pull pretty hard to cycle .....with un fired 3" it runs fine????? Win .supreme 3" #4 turkey load.any thoughts I'm stumped .going to clean the barrel again and try again tomm.Thanks in advance J.T.

Clean the chamber up really well. Most likely, the brass is swelling and sticking to the chamber.

cool I'm doing that right now .I',m using solvent and brass 12ga brush . What about scotch brite???

 

[infoman jr.]

What you're doing should work fine. Just let that solvent soak for a while.

No problem. Glad you could get it running.

As for a scope, are you talking about for turkeys or slugs?
