Dismantle and clean. Unreliable ignition can be due to any one or a combination of:
Dirty chamber causing "mushy" cartridge seating and hence loss of striker impact. (rather theoretical, but a good clean won't hurt!)
Worn striker.
Striker spring weak.
Striker and spring braked by fossilized grease inside the bolt body.
Ancient ammo.
