one i had at the range recently was short-stroking. i didn't have any sort of lubricant with me. then i realized there were 4 quarts of the stuff in my car engine. wiped the oil off the dipstick and what little was on my fingers rubbed on the mag tube had it working fine and still was 100 rds later. not so high tech. i've had fewer cycling problems out of A5's than gas guns, particularly with reloads. in fact, the only reloads i can recall not getting to work in an A5 were some 1oz loads in a 3" magnum altho it did cycle 3-1/4dr 1oz factory stuff.
