Hi

I had this happen with the 22 but only now and then it happened,I was using eley subs, it was only one box that appeared to do this the rest were ok, never done it since, never had it with the ,17

Try a different brand or do a strip clean again

A mate of mine had similar last week with his ruger 10/22 some rounds would fire others would not....turned out it was summit to do with firing mech...brought new one prob solved.....im no expert with rim/cf rifles but this maybe that could be cause

pick 25 random rounds out of the box mix them up in a bag fire as they come out of the bag if it again happens after 20 shots its the rifle not the rounds

Sound advice paulus

I'd say weak firing pin spring, Also check rims on mis fired rounds to see if theres a good indentation,

Same.

Paulus suggestion is sound advice too.

From the title I was expecting of a hot female teacher at the rifle range

What do the strike marks on the rims look like? Compare a fired round with a misfire, do they look the same?

 

What make of ammunition are they (ok, what are they branded, they're all made by the same factory)

All hornady ammo seem ok but the feral was very bad. the strike on bullet was not as deep on the missfire but still hit.
