Benelli M4 Dominion slugs and buckshot

[SMOKESKULL]

Anyone get these to work on the M4 or is there something wrong with mine? I cant get them to cycle the bolt reliably. Even the 1145FPS Score ammo is hit and miss. The 1200FPS Score works perfect every time. Let me know what works and what doesnt in your M4 so I can determine if mine needs to go back to Benelli for a new barrel.

Found a video on youtube that answered my question perfectly.

I personally run Winchester Superspeed for my target loads. (In competition)
(Switching to score "rapid speed" for $$)
Score Slugs
Fed bulk 00 Buck

All of those have proven reliable.

Things that I have seen issues with was the federal cheap target loads.
(And as you already found out in the video, "low recoil" = bad)

I was running box after box of low recoil slug and Buck through a friend's M4 with zero issue. Sellier and Bellot.

Was having issues with Ranger low recoil loads when gun was new. Took it back to Reliable in Vancouver and they did some Benelli sanctioned work to the ejector. Had no issues since. Call Shayne at Reliable and ask him about M4 issues with low recoil ammo. As this was quite a few years ago I don't recall the exact nature of the fix.

Anything I have used has run perfectly through my m4. Have runs tons of target shot, mostly fed and win, and cycles fine. Also run low recoil slugs, fiocchi low recoil 1150fps, and run flawless.

Is it broke in yet? I've had to run up to 100 rounds of heavy loads through some before they would cycle pet loads.
