I agree. It's far more likely that a reloaded round will go off on a second strike. The majority of misfires with reloaded rounds are caused by a primer that is not fully seated, but that is not high enough to cause a failure to feed. The first strike pushes the primer the rest of the way into the primer pocket and the second strike fires the round. This too is rare, but not as rare as a factory round going off on a second strike. (BTW, the most common cause of not fully seating the primer is short-stroking the press handle.)Paladin wrote:exactly... if it didn't go the first time around, it's not especially likely to go the second time.txinvestigator wrote: For those few, how many fired on the second hit?
