loading snail drum problem/question

jerrys, with the problem you describe I would typically examine the exterior of the magazine for dents. A seemingly small insignificant dent on the periphery of the magazine will not interefer with loading but will hamper proper feed. There is also what I call a Canadian cut magazine which will have a small cut into the tube which prohibits smooth feed. I don't know that this really is a Canadian thing but one has to blame something on the Canadians

If you will post photos of the magazine ( all angles) and email me the name of the seller I may be able to help further.
