    Cycling Issues - Suggestions from the learned among you.

    No! This has nothing to do with Rushy’s fat arse being too big for the bike seat.

    I recently purchase a replacement shotgun for the evil Typhoon F12 that I will hand in at the local Police Station at 16:59 on 20th December. I am now the proud owner of a Benelli M3 which is a nice little fun gun that can quickly switch between semi automatic and pump action modes.

    Up to now I have been happily using these in my Typhoon:

    but these will not cycle properly in the Benelli with there being a stoppage between every shot. Even an old man like me can work out there is not enough grunt in the cunt to push the breech block back far enough to eject and pick up the next round. I proved this with some double ought and number four buck shot, both of which cycled fine.

    The supplier that I purchased the gun from gave me a box of these:

    I blew the box away down on my range yesterday and they all cycled well. This confirmed to me that it is all about the oomph factor but I am concerned that the number five shot will be frowned on by the club IPSC convener.

    Do any of you more ardent shot gunners out there have any suggestions? I am particularly interested to know whether there is a gruntier seven and a half shot round that I might try.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
