    Got it...

    Never would have believed "crud" would have caused this problem.
    As stated above, cleaned the bolt out, re-assembled.
    Managed to pull 2 Sellier & Bellot rounds, and BOTH primers fired.
    Taking this rifle to the farm this week and see if it functions.

    Thanks for the advice Guys.

    Will be posting pics of this current SAMCO "save" later...if all works out.
