Looks for Range (1/11)

Hey Everyone, hoping you folks could help me out. i cleaned my m3000 today and when i got it back together i realized that the bolt would no longer lock back and that the lift would no longer move with the bolt. Any ideas what this could be? is something broken or am i missing something simple? Thanks!

Whats the lightest Target load you all have reliably shot through your m3000s? i've stuck to the recommended 1 1/8 and 3DRAM so far, and im just curious if i can shoot anything lighter. As a newbie, if i want something with less recoil, should i be looking for a lighter shot load or less DRAMS/FPS?

I only shot about 25 rounds of buckshot through my m3000 when i first got it to "break it in". From there i just polished the mag tube and dropped in a benelli spring and extractor. After that i've shot nothing but target loads without issue. probably at about ~300 rounds of that same federal you have, ~50 Estate shells that i can't remember the exact specs on, and another 25-50 of Remington Gun Club shells that were 1 1/8 and 3DRAM. None of them gave me any issues. I think as long as you stay close to the recommended 1 1/8oz and 3DRAM, then the gun will run it very reliably. I think i'm going to try some lighter stuff to see how it works now.

Hey guys, kind of a goofy question for you all. recently stripped my m3000 down for the first time to clean it(~300-350 shots). when i put the bolt back together, it felt like the recoil spring(inside the bolt carrier) was moving around a lot more freely than i remember. i could hear it sliding around inside the bolt carrier if i shook it around. This is normal right? i can't imagine i put it together wrong as it's not exactly a complicated set-up. figured it's just something i haven't noticed until now. just want to confirm this is normal, thanks in advance.

hi everyone, just picked up an m3000. i haven't been able to shoot it yet, but really looking forward to it. in the meantime, i've been polishing the mag tube and installing a few parts- NC +7 tube, NC low drag follower, NC barrel clamp, and RNT Release tab(which doesn't fit due to the spring spacer on the mag tube). Anyways, i had a quick question about the barrel/tube clamp. Does any one else find that this makes their mag tube angle up towards the barrel? i don't know if this is common or not, but it was pretty noticeable to me. i don't think it's getting close enough to actually be damaged by shot or anything, but like i said it's pretty noticeably angling towards the barrel. is this another clamp i can order which resolves this? or is this a common thing that doesn't effect anything? Thanks everyone!
