Bought my 12 year old son a new Weatherby Element 20ga a few months back. Broke the gun in with some Federal dove loads and had zero issues and functioned perfectly the first 100-150 rounds. Took it out again today and he had 4 or 5 jams with both federal and winchester dove loads this time in about 40-50 total shots.

Anyone have any experience or insight with this particular model at all? It seems to be very similar to my Franchi Affinity, and I have had many inertia shotguns over the years and never had and jamming issues with lite or heavy loads.
