Thanks for the input guys! I feel like an idiot! I switched from Federal 2 3\4 00 buck to Remington 2 3\4 game load #8 and 7 rounds went right in no problem! I also like to say I am impressed with Dave's metal Works products. I bought the full length mag tube, oversized bolt handle, and safety button and am very satisfied with the quality and finish. Also like to say before I buy any weapon I like to read as much about a potential purchase as possible before making a decision and have to thank everyone on this forum for helping me to decide to go with the M4. First shot it yesterday (me and my youngest son) and we love it. It is simply awesome!
