That doesn't mean they are unacceptable, it just means that they are slightly harder to ignite than other brands. Beyond that, it's either the snub or my eyes making those groups get bigger.Īny other advice? The 85 is a backup gun but you know how it goes.you want the backup to work if needed, because you are already in troubleĬCI primers are notoriously hard. For what it is, until now it has worked really well and is very accurate up to 10 yards. It was my first handgun, an older stainless example and I've put about 3,000 rounds through it since the late 90s. The Taurus isn't worth much on the used gun market, so I plan to keep it. If so, I'll consider more drastic action. So I've loaded up about 60 CCI-primed rounds and a bunch more with Winchester primers, to see if the 85 keeps misfiring. Thus I've narrowed down the possible culprit to CCI primers which I began with. I've checked the depth of the primer seating rigorously since this began-nothing too deep and I mark rounds to test if one is seated deeply. I fire only DA at the range.Ī second single-action pull will ignite the round. Both guns fire great with factory ammo, but the 85 misfires about 1 time in 10. I've been reloading for a little over a year, and other than a few really dumb mistakes at the start, I've only had one issue with one gun. If there is a sticky on this topic, all apologies.
