Win. SXP - Cycling spent round

[Simonsez]

I have been told that the inertia style bolt that retracts on firing seemingly by itself cannot be slowed down. The issue is the fired hull is on the ground & one then realizes he needs to stroke the forearm for a 2nd shot...
To me, it seems a heavy grease on the cam pin vs. oil should help. I don't remember a 1300 being so fast as this one is. It's awkward cause in a sudden burst of a launching pheasant one forgets to chamber another round! [emoji33] as the bird sails out of range...Anyone have a fix?

so what is the exact problem you want solved here since your post is a bit all over the place.

you talked about how the gun is already pumped back once you fire, and then the next part you talk about how you forget to pump forward to load a second round.

if you want a shotgun that ejects and loads a new shell then get a semi-auto.

Right, but the $ is the issue. I need reliable, all the time, same motion- so I got a Mossie I probably did not need. Shoot, pump, shoot again! Commit to muscle memory. Repeat.
One can practice every week but the unexpected will catch you with your pants down. Point: any way to retard that virtual auto-eject function?

Do you keep rearward pressure on the forehand when you shoot? If so that maybe what is causing you to pump the gun unexpectedly, ease up on the grip you maybe be doing this not thinking about it but trying to keep the gun in your shoulder.
Put a snap cap in and see what happens.

The gun was designed to operate the way you describe. I would think a better approach would be to practice and learn to rack forward consistently when shooting doubles or rapid fire, than to foil the design.

Yes, you are correct. However, what I experienced in the field demonstrates that the design portrays a distinct flaw, especially for a home protection purpose. Perhaps a best use for the SXP is for waterfowl shooters in a blind who are prepared for what is coming..or the one-shot types hunting over dogs.

The only way under Recoil to prevent the hand from moving backwards would be to "stiff-arm" the forend. Unrealistic...

Go shoot trap and skeet and work on that.

I have an SXP and the 'inertia system' is overblown. With a good grip the forearm travels rearward less than 2". You then do the rest of the work. It does make makes for faster cycling since you can 'follow' the gun more than having a more mechanical, human force initiated beginning to the cycle.

I don't understand why you wouldn't immediately, out of instinct, chamber a second round. Why fight the weapon when it's trying very hard to make you more efficient?

Yea, guess I have a light grip. My fired hull is on the ground & then I'm fumbling around. When I practiced with a mag extension I easily ran thru 7 rounds without a glitch...

Practice....you need to practice running a pump when you have to make a shot and follow-up shots, within a limited time, with adrenalin flowing, with focus on the target. Throwing 7 round somewhere / anywhere down range is quite easy.

Will try it someday on a stopwatch, did not think of that. That will be after I get tired of my new semi-auto bird & trap gun[emoji4]
