Hi all,
I have a "new" well-used 590 I just got and am having occasional issues totally feeding my shells. I attached a couple of pics to help illustrate the issue. When I am chambering the shell, it seems to not be seating flush to the bolt-face when the problem occurs, and the shell is being chambered at and angle making it pretty much impossible to chamber.
I am thinking it is possibly the lifter--it almost looks like the shell is getting pinched between the arms and the bottom part of the shell is not seating flush to the bolt like the top. Sometimes, also, the shell doesn't seat in the extractors, with a similar angle.
Any thoughts? I have repeated this issue with several types of shells. Any input would be appreaciated.
