Craig - Looks like that's the problem. Thanks
I've only lived in Michigan for about 45 years, and rarely had need for a smith. Anyone have a name to serve up in Michigan?

It is likely the shells.

Try Remington STS hulls. I have far less trouble with those than with AA hulls, which tend to stick in the rim recesses in the bbls and make the gun impossible to open.

hey sir. my 16 gauge Sterlingworth also did this since i bought it a decade ago. it too was a restock gun. i was directed to look at primers too. noticed a dragline across 1/2 of spent primers. happened with my usual 8500 psi loads with win 209 primers/cheddite hull. after this i switched to fio 616 and fixed it. now only loading 7/8 oz and cx2000 cheddite primers. the gun has opened like butter ever since. just my 2 cents worth. mattly

If the gun is not opening up at all, then the firing pins are likely sticking in the primers. If the gun is opening a little and stopping before the extractor starts pulling the shells out, then it is the shells sticking in the chambers.
