Light loads

[ShellShock90]

Will 2 3/4 dram, 1 1/8 oz shells cycle correctly in the M2000?. I know the minimum recommended is 3 dram, 1 1/8 oz. The gun is new and I would like to know if light loads will work properly. Thanks and Happy Holidays

If you properly break in your gun, you shouldn't have a problem shooting that light of a load.

What load should I start out shooting in order to break in my gun? I have 3 dram, 1 1/8 oz shells already. Should I use heavier loads?

I'm not a fast person, have read about drams but my long term hasn't kicked in, yet.
Please break it down for me. Mine worked fine from day one, I shot 2 3/4" 1 1/8 oz steel at 1300+ FPS

I'd shoot three boxes of 3 inch 1 3/4 oz shells. This will ensure the gun cycles and properly break in your gun. However, I'm sure you can get away with breaking in your gun with what you've got.
