If the magazines are a bit hard to get into place usually a light barrel adjustment will fix it. Just pull the barrel forward a tiny bit and then lock it down. If it goes in easy and then just does not cycle other than pellet choice try the JSB Mkll's. Other than that I have no idea.

I noticed this too with mine. When I was using the 25 gr pellets switched to MKII's in 34 gr it worked a lot better. Seems like the 25 gr are a bit short and causing the problems.
Not sure of a fix just identified the problem.

I did not think of that but it makes sense that giving the spring a bit more tension would stop it from sticking.

I had the same problem. The rotor would stick in position and not feed a pellet. FX contacted me and made some suggestions. Nothing worked. FX sent a new magazine and it has been flawless. The new one seemed to have a stronger spring.
