Take your barrel off and see if the reload will drop freely into the Chamber. If not your resizer is not doing the job and you need a new resizing ring from Mec. I only use a Mec Supersizer for resizing. Also take the section of the cleaning rod with the threads and attach a 10 gage wire brush and chuck it up in your 3/8" drill. Wrap pieces of 0000 stell wool around the brush. Lube it with WD40 and the chamber and polish the heck out of your chamber. Your 11-87 should cycle now. Good luck. Ned S
