cockercas Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 I've experienced this delayed firing a couple of times I pull the trigger hear the pin smack the primer and nothing then bang. Thers enough time between me hearing the pin hit the primer to know about and move the gun enough to miss but not enough to do anything else if you understand that. Anyone else experienced this any suggestions. Its remington .243 factory ammo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else experienced this any suggestions. Its remington .243 factory ammo Return the ammo, do not use it. Your experiancing hang fires and these can be very dangerous if you open the bolt it can blow it back out the gun and kill or injure you or others near you.

casts_by_fly Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 And have him check your firing pin first. A dirty or gummed up firing pin will contribute to hang fires if you're not getting a strong primer strike. Thanks, Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
