Tell them it's your ammo and you need those to make your case with Bergara if it's a rifle issue.

I'm calling in 1 hour.
I'm hope it's not the bergara bolt. An I just have bad ammo. Which sucks at 3-4$ a bullet.
I know prior to 18 the bolts had issues. I think that was more in the B14 line.
Yeah I broke it all down when I got home. This is my 1st bergara rifle so
Everything looked normal there build up a bit it's not like it was caked
Agreed! Below is an extract of my range RSO duties and responsibilities:
The RSOs have the responsibility of maintaining the safety and security of the individual disciplines and ranges as defined by the regulations and policies outlined in the GFSSC new member orientation handout and the Range SOP.
RSOs are responsible for the protection of MRSA and GFSSC club property from acts of irresponsible or dangerous firearms use.

Have you ever had a pierced primer? (A primer with a hole in it) If so, You will have primer blanks inside the bolt and they will cause a light strike because of limited travel. Just something to check. You should clean your bolt periodically anyway by disassembling it and giving it a thorough cleaning.
If it is a headspace issue, The firing pin will hit the primer and drive the case forward losing it's inertia and cause a light strike. Easily checked with a no-go guage.

Like I mentioned I may have misinterpreted what was meant over what was said. Im calling at 10.
I know more then I did yesterday. An thats a win.
No I haven't ever had a pierced primer.
I'll get pics of the primers from yesterday.
Something is definitely off in one form or another

Did you just buy this gun? is it used?
The brass is the 139gr SST my model 7 shoots these
The silver is the 159gr ELD-X is what I used in the bergara. Brand new box purchased yesterday. Now the miss fires looked **** near with my eye identical on punch depth.
I put the misfires in the model 7 an nada...

The gold looking primer is extruded, Typical of too large of a firing pin hole, The silver primer looks normal other than being off-center, But that won't cause your problem.
Called the range! It was my misunderstanding he just didn't want miss fires laying about. He intended to give them back to me when I was leaving.
The gold one is from a model 7. Would that extruder primer be a sign of wear on bolt?
I'll have the rounds in a few hours.

Extruded primers are caused by too big of a firing pin hole in the bolt.
Oh well I guess it was that way from the Remington factory.
