Okay Z, then that's different. You may have a lemon. My CS-30 loads smooth as silk. I've never had a problem with the drum itself - the problem has always been the Infinus loader mech. Mind you, I own exactly one Infinus, and one CS-30, so my experience is less than vast. In fact Mrs. Elliottw says it's "half-vast" 😜

Bad puns aside, drums of all types (CS-18, CS-25, CS-35, and presumably CS-50s) are notorious for being somewhat temperamental. The NIC is replete with stories of stubborn followers, bad feed lips, and troublesome springs. It's what they call a "thing" around here.

In the past, I've taken apart CS-35s and reconditioned them by cleaning the track, sanding down the transition, lubing the follower, and tightening the drum spring. But your CS-30 is brand new. It shouldn't need that kind of treatment. Well, unless you've been storing your darts in the drum. Which of course we all know is really bad. Right ?

Beyond that, I don't know what to tell ya Z. But maybe you got a bad one.
