Steel shot MAY be too soft and wear out depending on quality of it. Will take a fair while..hard lead shot might weirdly enough last longer,it won't rust lol

Well as it happens I had no steel shot I ended up using hardened No.4(?) lead shot, works like a charm and thanks to advice from @Hindquarters the action is all back together and seems to function.
A general thanks to all that assisted with suggestions :thumbsup:
PS- don’t have your right thumb anywhere near the ejection port when jiggling the cocking handle into place and it doesn’t hold and you’re on blood thinners.:o.
