Depends a lot on the brand of primer, too: this morning shooting SCs, one of my pals' Gastine Rennett gave him trouble the whole course. He was using Fiocchi factory ammo and the firing pins 'bit' enough into the primers that he had trouble opening the gun almost every station. Apparently the primer compound & resultant goo after detonation holds the firing pins like thick taffy and won't allow them to fully rebound. Said he never has this problem with other factory loads like Win AA, Remington, Federal., etc. Also, excellent advice from the Robin and Daryl - find and keep ALL the wood fragments - your gunstock can be repaired!
