Anybody have any issues with shells cycling through an auto? I've rolled some of the big 20 XL load for me and a buddy and they won't cycle through his Benelli M2. Anybody had any similar issues or know any fixes?

Some benellis won't shoot the 3" loads. Hal has a recipe for benellis that lots of folks are using.

I shoot the Stubby XL in my M2. It's a 2 3/4" load. Looks small shoots BIG!

I have had guns that wouldn't cycle the 3 inch roll crimped loads. I sold the gun.

Your only solution is to change guns or loads.

Or back it up with factory load or 1 5/8 oz. My Franchi Affinity will not feed the 3" load I use from the magazine. However it ejects the hull fine so I just back up with a factory load or 1 5/8 oz load of TSS.

Comes to us at midnight very clean.
It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands.
It hopes we've learned something from yesterday."

My m2 will cycle the 3 inch 1 5/8 oz load, but I haven't actually measured it to see if it's a full 3 inches

I didn't have any issues with my 12 ga 3" 1187 cycling TSS loads.


83% of all statistics are made up.

My Benelli m1 super 90 will not cycle the 3 inch TSS load I shoot, so I just put magblends in for my backup shots.

I'm going to fool around with it some, just looking at the shells I think they may actually be a little long. I had a good bit of hull left to roll down after dropping the shot.

I trim down to .25 inch above my overshot. That will help some if it's close.

I just add something the right height and use a utility knife.

Drop in the top on the over shot card and trim to the top. I never got around to making a dowel.

Most of my guns don't require the trimming to function.

My affinity wouldn't cycle unless I trimmed the hull like stated above

The heck with going thru all the trouble of loading TSS and backing it up with factory loads. My M2 is 3 deep with 2 3/4" TSS.

If you have to shoot the 3" buy a Gaep roll crimp. Mine tend to be a tad bit shorter when using the Gaep vs. BPI.
