I've picked a Fortress 40mm before, and for me, the key was taking it slow. Since it's a bit of a step up from the norm for me, I had to take my time and learn the feel. I know it might not help you specifically, but the one I picked felt different. It's hard to explain, but just take it slow and try all of the pins until you find the first one that binds. After that it's cake.
