[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 630744, member: 10755"] There's only one way to find out, disassemble the bolt and find the problem, it may be a piece of junk in there or too much lube that has accumulated a lot of dust binding things up. I would also be checking that there are no burrs on the cocking piece that could hang up the firing pin assembly. If you can uncock the bolt, measure how much firing pin protrusion there is, it should be between .050"-.065", anything less than .050" will give you misfires, anything over .065" can cause pierced primers. gun) [/QUOTE]
