[QUOTE="davewilson, post: 439097, member: 4491"] about a month ago i had my gun go "click" this happened to me a couple years ago and found it was a weak spring, and it happened very often. my first thought was a repeat but long story short was the primer fired and simply didn't ignite the powder enough to explode.when i took the shell apart, the bottom maybe 1/3 of the powder was clumped together and blackened. quite visible and different from the powder in the upper 2/3's of the case. a very good dent in the primer and my spring still has 26 lbs which i did have checked to be on the safe side. the primer went off, but simply didn't ignite the powder. Edge case, 99 gr of H1000, GM215M primer. [/QUOTE]
