Browning Buckmaster Issues and Question

[Nimh]

As said, find what it likes to eat. My wife's has around 3k through it, and doesn't like some of the match ammo we have tried, but it loves the bulk Federal stuff.

Congrats on finding a shooting wife!

I went to the range again after cleaning the Buckmark. I tried the Federal ammo again to see if the issue was still there. I was surprised after the first magazine that all rounds fired properly. The second and subsequent magazines had issues, but most failures to eject. After the first 50 rounds I switched to the CCI ammo. The CCI rounds made a larger pop, so I think they were significantly more powerful round. The first and second magazine with the CCI's went smoothly and I was thinking the problems were solved. Unfortunately, had more issues with the third magazine on. In multiple magazines I had the round get jammed in the barrel so tight I needed to pry them out with a metal alan wrench. I intended on putting 200 rounds through it at the range but stopped after a 100.

Went back to Cabela's to see what I should do with gun. I wanted to see how much they would give me for a trade-in for the 1 month old gun. The guy at Cabela's said we don't need any more Buckmarks but would offer me $100. I politely said "no" and decided to ship the gun back to Browning for repair/diagnosis. I'll be waiting a while to get it back, but hope for better luck.
