macdojge01 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 i was initially disappointed when i found out about the break in period with the sbe2 as they cost quite a bit of money and in the uk high brass cartridges cost quite a bit so i set about finding another way to break the gun in i couldn't figure out how to weaken the springs other than firing large loads so i just filed away all the machining marks and polished every contact surface i could this dramatically improved its ability to fire light loads it will now cycle loads less than 1 ounce about 24 grams which is great considering originally it only fired 32 and above and i would like to say it is the best gun i own and possibly the best gun i will ever own unless what's in the box is better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiedog Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Could you give more detail on what you filed or polished, and how? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdojge01 Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 well if you look on the trigger housing you will see quite a few marks or slag lines (this is where the mold was joined) just little bits like that if you manually cycle the action without the barrel on you can see what parts rub together just take a look for unusual marks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
