my Uberti 73 cold hearted? 44-40

I have a new Uberti Winchester 73' clone. We shot in 55 degree weather today and mine would not properly cycle. I failed to load a fresh cartridge into the camber on more than one occasion - more often than not. The cartridge would hang up and jam. The rifle is new with less than 1000 rounds down the barrel. All factory loads, so re-loads are not the issue. I haven't taken the rifle apart yet, so I don't know what to report. When I clean it - after every shoot, I swab the barrel and spray the chamber with cleaner and wipe dry. The cleaner I use is Ballistol. Some say I may have a weak cartridge spring in the tube. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated! Thanks.
