Hi.
I am new to double ownership and have found that by using a recommended load of 106 grains of AR 2209, with a 570 Woodleigh, sometimes it doesn't open easily. The other day I fired a right and a left and it was difficult to open, it has happened before, but to a lesser extent, is it the loads?
I can't send it back to the US for warranty, but maybe I might have to get a gunsmith here in Australia to look at it.
Any advice will be appreciated.

Cheers Baz.
 
Any pictures of brass still in rifle after firing
Or by themselves
 
Cheers guys.
I took it into the gunsmith this morning and it appears to be the left firing pin needs adjusting, just coming out a little bit to far.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
