Yep...Same thing on the SBE's. The rotating bolt has to be "seated" or it's a no go. I've been screwed before when I tried to load the gun "slow-n-quiet", by not letting the action slam shut. Then when I jumped a puddle for ducks the gun didn't fire on the first shot. Had to rack the action by hand for the final 2 shots. Definately something to remember.
