Just replaced the Loading Spring and its retaining screw as the old ones kept backing out and jammed the cartridge carrier in the upward position preventing ejection of the spent cartridge. It was a relatively simple repair and allowed the oppurtunity to polish some of the internals and smoothen things up a bit.
My question, is this a common repair as I've only put roughly 300 rounds through it (can't speak for the original owner)? This is my deer rifle and wouldn't want the loading gate to jam the action on a future hunt. Anyone have a similiar experience?
