I just grabbed my 870 express from its "ready" location for a routine cleaning and when I went to unload it, the magazine jammed up. The mag was loaded with 2 Winchester Super X 00 buck shells followed by 4 Sellier and Bellot 00 buck (I know, bit it's what I had on hand) The first Winchester chambered fine, but when I racked again the next Winchester was loose in the mag with no spring pressure behind it. I had to let gravity feed it as well as the first Sellier shell. I had to stick something in the magazine and wiggle the remaining shells to free them before they slammed forward succumbing to the pressure of the follower. My question is, is there something I need to do to lube the mag, or is this just due to the crappy Sellier ammo? I have always considered this to be my "go-to HD gun", but now I'm a little weary.
P.S. I have never had any problem with this gun and have shot a couple hundred Trap/Skeet loads through it as well as several boxes of Winchester 00 Buck.
