No dice - pinchy pinchy.
I tend to pump completely the opposed way: tilted WAY BACK and slightly to the side. This keeps one ball on the feed block and the rest away from the block, in the feed tube.

DSA: could you post some close-up photos of your snub, with the slide OFF, showing the feed port? |
Have you considered grinding the front 1/3 of the snub feed hole down into a wedge, kind of like so: "<" Right now I think its more of a rectangular shape correct? Of course such a modification is permanent...what about having an extra test snub made out of aluminum? All you need is an Al tube with the correct OD, a large enough ID (you're not firing balls out of this, just testing ball feeding). After you get it, just drill (or dremel) a feed hole in the correct location, and drill and tap for screws to mount the frame. What is the OD and ID of the snub again (where the bolt/hammer reside)?
Of course, make that area into a wedge may just slice balls instead of pinching them. hence the test snub.
