What causes the jam - misloading, mid-roll problems, or end-of-roll
problems? Who bulk loads it (I would be mighty tempted to switch film
sources, if the problems continue....)? If the problem is with loading,
try curling the film tongue inward before loading - if the film is
flat when loaded, it may get folded over when the take-up spool
finally catches it, making the wound-up film roll fatter than normal,
resulting in jamming mid roll, or sometimes at the end of rewind.
I also find that bulk-loaded film loads more reliably in auto-load
Nikons if there is no conventional tongue cut - a straight edge works
fine. Also, film that has recently been in a non-autoloading (back
winding) body SHOULD NOT be put into an auto-loading camera before
restoring the forward film curl - it will jam. If the film has mid-roll
problems (the above can cause a mid-roll jam, when the take-up spool
of film finally gets too fat to turn in the space for it), it may be
caused by attaching the film at a slight angle to the cartridge spindle,
causing the film to bind on the edges of the spindle (more likely to
show up as a problem when loading than when using the film). If the
film is not well attached to the cartridge spindle, or the tape is
excessively long and not well attached to the film, there can be
end-of-roll problems.
Hope This Helps
