[QUOTE="Garand, post: 1024164, member: 3498"] I had the same problem yesterday with my new little Diamondback .380... I had 2 out of the first 6 just go click.. primer was struck in the center, but it does seem to be pretty light.. I proceeded to shoot 50 rounds of PMC FMJ rounds through the gun with zero problems, went back to the Hornady Critical Defense and had 3 more failures in the 1st mag(6rds)... I was able to rechamber and try again with success on the second primer strike, so it appears that my gun isn't hitting the primer hard enough for these primers. PMC's on left, notice the difference in primer strike. [attach=full]73451[/attach] [/QUOTE]
