I normally use 67mm Fiochi cartridges, but have used all sorts with no problems. I've found good lubrication is the answer with Rems, with that's any help (not to teach you to suck eggs or anything! )

i was learnt to run them dry ??? (The plot thickens) just keep on top of the carbon buildup and ensure the vent holes are clear but never heard of needing to oil the gas system I'll stick with 70mm I no they work.

An auto should have a light oil sprayed on the external of the mag tube and the piston IMO. If you don't the carbon really bonds on and at the end of the day you want everything nice and free. Don't use thicker oil or too great an amount.

My SX3 has done just fine with such light loads

No way mate, they need a few drops of oil here and there, definite. I clean mine after every outing, 100 rounds, clean it properly clean. Then lube the moving parts with a drop or two of that thick oil. Failing that, a squirt of aerosol gun oil in the chamber.

 

Next time your dry gun fails to feed, give it a squirt of oil in the chamber, I bet ya the next round works fine :)

You should never,ever put oil,grease or any lubricant in a chamber of any firearm. :no:

 

 

It could lead to excessive pressure on the bolt face/standing breech.

No worries.

 

Didn't mean to appear 'all knowing', just concerned that some people would be reaching for the WD40 etc as a 'cure all' fix.

Nar no worries, too much beer mixed with typing is never a good thing!

 

Anyway, yes my Remington shooting friends, a bit o lube is what your guns needs!
