yea it will load and eject live shells but it is when the kent is shot the shell will not extract. it only appears to be with those particular shells though i haven't had a jam with any other shell.

Not sure if this will help, but you can try this:

I'm all out of idea, but the last thing I can think of is to make sure your barrel is made to take 3" shells. I know that's basic but some times people forget this. Lol

No problem man, maybe it's just the shell they make, I hear Winchester Universal Target loads sucks and will cause issues.
