Went turkey hunting this morning. When to unload my gun and now I have a shell stuck with another shell coming out of the magazine and it is pushing on the shell that is ejecting. Any tips on how to remedy this situation?

have the same gun and never had that happen.interested to see what others say.

can you push the lower shell forward ..back towards the magazine?? Maybe use 3 inch instead of 3.5" if that problem continues. Better yet..........buy a Beretta

Take out the magazine tube end and spring and push the hung up round back out the tube.

Yep..You need to replace all the springs..

Typically when they double feed it is a cartridge stop issue. Either use a small screwdriver to push the lower round back into the tube or pull the barrel. About a 1 minute fix.

Might be best to take it outside, to work on it. as well. old243

I believe 160user may be correct on this. The shell stop may be the problem.

I tote the same gun shooten 31/2 " buckshot running deer dogs . When you unload it shuck it as fast as you can . 31/2`s dont like slow motion 3" and down not a problem .
Hope this help`s ya .

Ejector problem. Extractor worked and held onto the shell for removal from the chamber. Ejector did not do its job of ejecting the shell from the receiver. Could be weak or broken.

i'd try jackin a few rounds through it with some umph before tearin too much apart.have shot 760's since i was a kid and find you have to do the same with them.

let us know what you figure out.please.

I think the ejection speed might be a problem like cancutter said, you can't hesitate on a pump. If not either ammo or ejector

Does it do it with a fired shell?

If the bottom shell was in the feed before the ejection happened the it would be the stop First tear it down and give it a GOOD cleaning. If that didn't happen still tear it down and give it a GOOD cleaning. If it still does it it is the ejector or ejector spring. If you aren't familiar with disassembly of the bolt take it to a gunsmith. Remingtons are famous for these kind of issues when dirty. I should know I own about 20 of their shotguns and several are 3 1/2s.

I have only had that happen when I did a slow ejection so I could just grab the she'll from the action and not let the shell hit the ground. With normal operation it's never happened to me.

Most guns regardless of action, bolt, pump, lever, even doubles, are made to run hard. Cycle them with enthusiasm and safety. Quickest way to jam is to baby it

X2 My 870 will do same thing if I don't fully cycle it. I wasn't fully bringing forearm completely back after firing.

Ga,
the Ejector should be staked to the inside of the receiver, opposite the ejection port. Make sure it's still in place. The Extractor is what pulls the shell from the chamber. The case head looks like it is still caught by the extractor. Make sure both are in place and working correctly. Good idea to take it outside to dismantle and clear the jam so you can get a good look. Sometimes the speed at which the action is worked may effect ejection, but usually on smaller gage size. I would clean and lubricate everything well before re-assembling.

Make sure the Ejector is intact. ^ I had to replace one recently , but it wasnt an 870.
