Winchester 30-06 misfire
I recently purchased a used Winchester 30-06 model 70 and fired a box of remington 180 grain rounds with no misfires or problems. The grouping was actually quite nice. I was told I should problaly be using 150-165 grain for whitetail deer. Yesterday I purchased a box of Winchester 30-06 165 grain and the first round misfired on me. I was wondering of the misfire is most likely due to a dirty rifle (firing pin) or a bad primer in the round? I do not want the misfire to happen again in the field looking at a wall hanger running.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Tedk
