jamming remington 870

Get a bore mop and load it with J-B bore bright put it on a short rod in a cordless drill ( so you don't build any heat ) and move it back and forth , in the chamber at low speed . She will smooth right up and shine like a new penny . Be patient it takes a little while , clean and inspect frequently . You hang right in there son , sorry to hear about your dad . You need a shooting mentor , should be able to find one at the range ! Good luck !!
 
The is never a stupid question...

You are doing the right thing asking for help. Hope you get it running smooth as silk. Enjoy. Jim
 
For what it's worth...my .02

I totally agree with hogdogs, oneoldsap and ja...you will never know unless you ask. I respect you for asking here...instead of on the streets, where you may not get true knowledge. Hogdogs knows his stuff. Some of the others are trying to help too and they prolly know theirs just as well...and some are a little over-protective. Opinions don't hurt...you're trying to be logical about this...use your head and any knowledge or assistance you can get. Glad you came here though.
 
Plastic-bodied shotshells sometimes leave plastic residue in the the chambers, and, once it gets heated up, causes shells to stick in the chamber. Make sure your chamber is squeaky clean, and use a solvent that specifically states it will clean plastic residue out of shotgun chambers. I would recommend using a nylon bristle brush while cleaning your chamber, as well. The residue is hard to see, so you are really going to have to work at it.
