I agree. My new Ruger Marlin will feed Lyman #429421 and the RCBS gas-checked Keith. MY older Winchester Model 94 AE will also feed the Keith SWC's.

Doug, sorry to hear of your health problem. Prayers in the Name Of Christ Jesus for your peace, comfort and healing, Amen.
Thank you for excellent work you did on my S&W 629.
My .45 Colt load of a 250 gr SWC @ 900 fps works on deer out to my max shooting range for handgun hunting,....and it is comfortable to shoot.[smilie=s:

Redriverhunter, gives us a "heads-up" on your findings.
Maybe load a dummy round to your seating depth and chamber it. Then extract the cartridge and see if it comes out hard, or if it shows any...

First, I would shoot some good quality factory ammo to see if any primer deformity occurs.
As mentioned, weak hammer spring, oversized firing-pin hole in bolt face, or firing-pin with too small...
My S&W model 19-5 that was a police trade in. Must have been used by a desk cop, because it looked like it had never fired except with .38 lead loads, having a leaded up barrel.

I have never had a problem in any of my Glocks after thousands of rounds.

I wonder if they take carbon credits......they would be worth about as much as that steam-punk Remington!
