I'm the new owner of a model 99 in 284 Win. I'm finding it difficult to load the rotary magazine and I wonder how much movement there should be in the auto cutoff? It is distinctly different from that in a 303 Savage so I can't use that as an example. I've shot it several times and notice that it ejects some cartridge and not others. It extracts them but doesn't eject them. The cartridges are reloads that came with the gun. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Barney
