Silver pig Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 Is anyone shooting a Fabarm Axis RS12 with 24 gram cartridges and having problems with the second barrel not being selected. I know this works on an inertia system so just wondering if this is the problem, I have only got to give the butt end a gentle tap to select the other barrel when using snap caps after cleaning, things are fine with larger loads, the gun is new but this is frustrating when you get a slab of 24s thrown in with it and you can only use one barrel............

Silver pig Posted June 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 I have heard the same about s/a but this is an o/u and wouldn't expect them to be as fussy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovercoupe Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 28g in first barrel 24 in second, least you can use them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosd Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 Some auto's recommend you put a couple of hundred heavy (30 or 32g) cartridges when you first get it. Presumably this loosens up the spring/mechanism. Don't know if this would benefit an O/U, might be worth giving it a go.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
