[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1911019, member: 93895"] You can measure firing pin drop and see if it is at least .230" supposedly .250" is optimal. Measure from the cocking indicator on the back of the bolt from being cocked and then in fired position. Also, do you think it's possible that you have excessive head space and the cartridge is allowed to drive far enough forward into the chamber that the firing pin isn't driving into the primer far enough every time.
