Bruce- I have never owned a steel receiver DA, but I have owned and worked on several DA's that have Hiduminium receivers. The DA's is adjustable at the recoil spring, but I have never seen one that would not cycle any new factory shell, big or light after a thorough internal cleaning. These guns are very sensitive to being clean internally. Also, I have had some trouble getting my guns to cycle some reloads. If you do try and adjust the friction ring, do so carefully. The browning Auto 5 guys are comfortable turning that friction ring back and forth for different loads but keep in mind that these shotguns were put together by hand. They only come apart and go back together one way. Good luck.
