Anyone have problems with Privi?

No the powder was dry, I believe the primer did not fire, and I am guessing when I retracted the bolt the case spun but the bullet didn't effectively pulling the bullet from the case. That's a guess as I am no expert. I am taking the rifle out again this morning, with same ammo, hopefully it was just a rare bad round.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Agree - sounds like a bad primer. You may wish to talk to Privi before shooting the rest of it. They may want to inspect the unfired rounds. Hopefully they will replace your product

Just got back from the range. I put the rest of what i had, about 100 rounds, through the 03 and M1 icon

. Not one incident. All rounds went off and made good groups from both rifles. I did save the brass. So i am going to chalk it up to just one bad apple in the bushel. I am going to contact privi though and let them know this happened. Thanks for all your responses
