I just bought a Browning Gold Hunter 3 1/2, my first shotgun. I shot 150 2 3/4 in, Hodgden Clays powder 18.5 gr, 1 oz loads with not problems whatsoever. I had a light load and ever since then it will not eject the shells. I cleaned the gun. Still won't eject. I have been told the 3 1/2 model has problems shoting the 2 3/4 in shells because they do not product enough pressure to push back the reciever. Is this true? Can I use different powder like Hedgdens Longshot to product the added pressure needed? Any sugestions would be helpful.

  where do you oil it, the piston area? I'm being told to keep that area dry.
