Does anybody have trouble with flow-ability of F2F corn?

I've planted F2F corn 2 years now. Both years I have had trouble with the 108 day corn flowing through our planter. It is very inconsistent and have to set the rate much higher to get desired rate. It even tends to hang up in the seed box when we go to dump it into our seed tender. The 115 day corn flows good. It plants almost spot on for the rate I set for it. Rep says nobody else has spoken of this problem. Just wondering if I am the only one experiencing this.

My fingerpickup meters loved it though. Had best looking sigulation and ...
