Shooting at range tomorrow and will check power on return in hope that surplus lube 'burned' off - if not then strip down. Once again thank you.
Just to clarify, I'm not saying the issue is necessarily connected with autoignition, just that the symptoms can be caused by it, and it's a strong possibility.
