A good break-in period should get the job done. My M1 wouldn't cycle 7/8 loads either until I read the owner's manual again and put it through a break-in period of 3 boxes of heavy field loads. It will now cycle them fine.

Decided to try the reduced recoil loads today in my franchi since I put the o ring in. Budda! Dude I'm telling you, $2.50 well spent

Update for all of you. We went and shot some skeet. Turner's gun did great (with him shooting it) with hotter, 1 oz/1250 fps loads like we dove hunt with. After shooting a couple boxes of them, we went back to some 7/8 oz/1200 fps loads and it cycled them like butter for him as well. I think just breaking the spring in a little more was the trick.

Glad to hear it.
