Franchi Affinity 3 Cycling Issues

Got a brand new Franchi Affinity 3 20 gauge that is having trouble cycling 2 3/4 in 7/8 oz loads. It will eject the shell but won't load the next one into the chamber. Any recommendations on fixing this without having to pay to ship it back to them? I have cleaned the gun ( did not completely break the bolt down though). Never had an inertia semiauto before only a couple gas operated and they seemed to cycle everything no problem. Any help appreciated.

Probably needs to be broken in.. shoot a few boxes of a heavier load..

It's the shells not the gun. You need more oomph

Try some 1300 fps 7/8oz target loads or heavier field loads. After a few boxes of those try the lower velocity stuff again.
