[QUOTE="criticalbass, post: 768830, member: 711"] If the Weatherby works like the 1187, clean the O-ring and the metal rings well. Most failures to function on Remingtons are the result of too much oil in the gas system which rapidly piles up residue resulting in failure to function. I went on a quail hunt once where a hunter I had not met was invited by the landowner. His 1100 would not function properly. It had been oiled heavily, not cleaned, and allowed to set for a long time. Very carefully applied gasoline (safety instructor, right?:smash:) cleaned out the crud. Even the holes in the barrel were full of powder residue. I spent the rest of the hunt staying away from him because once he started shooting, he focused only on the bird/s and not on anyone or anything else, sort of like he was related to Dick Cheney. Proving one more time that no good deed ever goes unpunished. I have no personal experience with Weatherby shotguns, but 1 1/8 ounce shells should work just fine. CB [/QUOTE]
