Cartridge not fully seated might result in forward movement when struck by firing pin, with result being failure to fire.

Having said that, I'd put my quarter bet on either the primer seating depth or the improper chamber seating because you state that you were able to fire the rounds after several restrikes.

Restrike would drive the cartridge further into battery (headspacing off the case mouth) or could seat the primer deeper.
