[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 339785, member: 9215"] We can't reall KNOW can we? The cause and results do get blown down the bore, eventually. Been guessed that tumbling media clogs some flash holes. The explosive pellet may have been crushed during seating. Or, the primer may not be pushed fully home so the pin impact is cushioned enough to ****** full detonation. Or a tiny bit of the compound may be contaminated by finger oils. Or the firing pin impact may be soft due to a weak spring or crud in the bolt. Or powder demons may be at work! [/QUOTE]
