I just purchased a Remington 870 Express, and am taking it to the range to shoot it for the first time tomorrow

. I have, however, already cycled some rounds and compared to my other shotgun (Benelli Supernova), it seems you have to be a little more deliberate when racking the slide expel the shell and chamber the next round. The action itself is smooth, but it seems like it would be a little easier to "short-stroke" the remington compared to the Benelli. Have you guys found this to be common with the Remington?
