| I took out yesterday and began the session without an issue. After about 45 rounds (Silver Bear SP) it began to give me light primer strikes. Swapped ammo, no change. Rifle has about 100 rounds through it, functioned flawlessly up until yesterday. Any ideas before I start contacting PSA on this? |

Prior to that, I wasn't getting the "rattle". Didn't make any difference. Until the K-Var firing pin. Shot two 30rd mags without an issue. |
