The term "close" is relative. A mere 3 thousandths of an inch in just the right spot can make a world of difference.
With the 30" barrels, upon opening the action do you feel the hammers being drawn back, but just not far enough to catch the sears? It's possible the hook is not engaging the cocking bar at all if you are not feeling the hammers being partially drawn back.
When you swapped the hooks out, did either barrel cock the hammers?
