Bah... IMHO Wby is full of chit.. Well, maybe it's true in their shotguns, but I've shortened many semi-auto barrels over my nearly 20 years as a 'smith and not once had anybody come back and say they don't cycle ammo... Full disclosure - all have been Rem variations, a few A-5s and probably some Winchesters.. No Wbys that I can recall.
