Was dove shooting Saturday (actually got a double which is rare as I'm at best adequate with a shotgun).
The gun was my 1899 Dickson round action using the "made by another" steel barrels produced in the UK five years ago. Fired about 40 cartridges and noticed at about halfway through that the right ejector was not kicking hulls out.
While cleaning the gun found that the ejector was hanging up about halfway through its length. Might have gotten some crud in there, or maybe the shaft is slightly bent. Used solvent and then oil and worked the ejector back and forth many times. While it eased its movement somewhat, it still is much stiffer than the left ejector that properly just slides back and forth.
Grateful for advice.
Regards, Tim
