My wife shoots a SKB 150 20 ga and we usually use light reloads. Today we had several problems where the 2nd barrel wouldn't fire. I am pretty sure it is due to the light reloads not tripping the inertia system. The gun doesn't have a recoil pad so that isn't the problem.
Has anyone altered or adjusted their similar gun to accommodate light loads. At the end of the round she tried my 20 ga W 21 and hit 2 of the tougher targets on the course and said wow it swings itself.
This ain't a dress rehearsal , Don't Let the Old Man IN

Might be time for a strip and clean before making adjustments to the trigger. There is an order to these things. My boy and I shot trap this afternoon, we had the barrels of both guns so hot you couldn’t touch them. High eighties for temps. Perhaps some junk made it into the workings of your single trigger?
Best,
Ted

Dirty Harry That ain’t how I would do it. WD-40 isn’t oil. Spraying WD-40 into a mechanism isn’t cleaning. Best, Ted

^^^^ I am ignoring this user^^^^----------One thing to remember about using WD-40, Harry. It is a mild solvent and degreaser and was made for breaking down grease and grime as you say. But since it is a light oil, you are supposed to clean the oil off because it will leave a film. I would then oil it with a good oil- something like Clenzoil. That is what I did recently with my Remington 552 BDL deluxe that I hadn't cleaned in years. Now it works as slick as a whistle. Good luck and thanks for posting.
