[QUOTE="Coyoteee, post: 2001219, member: 115738"] I haven’t read this thread completely, so maybe it’s covered. And it’s not mentioned what the chambering is of the rifle that’s being used, whether it’s a belted cartridge or one that headspace son the shoulder. I’ve had a similar problem with a 204R. First strike it misfired and second it fired. my prob was a headspace problem. New batch of brass, with an inconsistent headspace measurement throughout the whole batch. In my case what was happening, the first strike would push the case forward and the second would fire it. A difference I had was that a lot of them had a proper headspace and would fire at first strike. And some of them would pierce the primer on the first strike. In the case of the pierced primer, the strike would send the cartridge forward and it would fire and the brass would slam back against the pin before it had a chance to retract. [/QUOTE]
