Winchester universal jamming my bps ?!?

[hawkmp9]

Wondered if anyone else is having an issue with winchester universal 2 3/4" 12ga shells I think #4shot?
Got them at Canadian tire just cuz I had to scratch my ammo itch.
Well... They suck.
I guess they expand and jam my pump closed.
A little muscle opens the slide. I can't see any obvious bulging of the shell? I can say they are the cheap aluminum base instead of brass.
Had happend with 5 or 6 per box of 25.
I don't think it's my browning because I fed it 50 challengers same load and no issues.
The gun only has about 100 rounds through it.
If it happens with other brands I'll consider polishing the bore at my local gunsmith.

Let me know what y'all think.
Thanks

It is the ammo. you never have to polish a bore on a BPS. It is crap ammo

Exact same stuff did the same thing to my bps. Never had any ptoblem with other types though.

Winchester Target expands in my Mossberg 930 to the point where I have to disassemble the gun and force the shell out of the barrel.

It is the ammo , it was jamming up my buddy's brand new bps his first time out with a brand new gun , we loaded up his bps with different shells and it ran like a champ . Unfortunately he had bought one of those 100 round bulk packs . He will have to use them up in his old cooey single shot , the 28 inch barrel should give him enough leverage to extract them . They are kinda stiff to extract in my coach gun with 20" barrels

Universals also jammed up my Stevens shotgun. I'd never buy them again. Like others said, the metal on the shell expands when fired and gets stuck in the chamber.

I can't remember if my BPS has ever jammed, I may try a box of Universals just out of curiosity!
