SBE Magazine problem

[Littman]

I have a new SBE and I love: fit, swing, reliability, etc. I just have 1 question. I find it to be a real thumb buster to put shells into the magazine. I had been shooting a Rem 1100 previously and I admit: it is hard to put shells in the SBE comparitivly. I find that carrier doesn't go up enough when the action is closed. In turn when I try to put a shell in the magazine, I am not able to line the longitudinal axis of the shell with the longitudinal axis of the magazine. When I try to put a 3.5" shell in, the shell almosts has to bend.....Peter
