Benelli issue

[Paper Boy]

Have a Benelli Nova in 20g and recently the second or third round will not feed from the magazine. Broke the gun down and cleaned the heck out of it but it still happens just about every other time I reload. If I slam the action open and closed once or twice the shell will usually feed. Any thoughts?

I have never had to replace a magazine spring in any of my shot guns befor and this one is much newer and less used than the others I have so it seems a bit soon, but maybe im wrong. Its about the last thing I can think of though. Trying to avoid sending it in for now.

Thanks for any suggestions

What ammo are you using?

Tried both winchester and Rem both did the same thing

Went home and dug out heavy shot and federal and both had issues as well.

Clean out your magazine tube first, make sure there isn't any lube or obstacales. The follower could be hanging up on something.

Did that and it all looks fine, debating putting some dry lube in there just to see if it helps.

I've had problems with the Winchester target ammo in both my 870 and m4. I haven't used the remminton target but did use the Federal. Federal seemed to fix my issue. Sorry about the problem but try the federal out and see what happens. My ammo was the 100 rd bulk packs from Walmart.
