I was breaking in the barrel on my rifle. I kept have light strikes or no perceived strikes. Chambered in 6.5 CM. I have a 20 inch barrel on it.
I'm pretty sure it is a geisle single stage trigger. I don't recall the bcg manufacturer.You should at least see firing pin dents in the primer if the bolt is going fully into battery. Not that this is your problem, but which trigger. The trigger can cause light strikes but shouldn’t cause no strikes.
Not knowing what parts that you used doesn't help. If it is a Geissele SSP trigger, here is a quote directly from them:I'm pretty sure it is a geisle single stage trigger. I don't recall the bcg manufacturer.

the gun forums are littered with posts about hammer springs, incorrectly installed, and gunsmith errors.
No wife. Burnt bronze is the color, halogen light and flash while being oiled makes it look brighter than it actually is.Hammer spring looks good, did your wife pick the color.
LOL just having some fun with you, looks good.No wife. Burnt bronze is the color, halogen light and flash while being oiled makes it look brighter than it actually is.
If that is a SSP it works for both AR15/AR308Like I already posted in your other thread.
You used a AR15 LPK.
You have a too light hammer spring, it will never work.
I've seen this problem before, and am sure I will again.
Get a AR10/AR308 LPK with the heavier spring.
Or, get a cassette style AR10/AR308 trigger assembly.
Hammer spring looks good, did your wife pick the color.
hammer spring install looks good, thanks for the pics. Now,as 2aBaCa eluded to, wondering if it's not going fully into battery. what would cause that? perhaps too tight on the headspace, preventing the bolt from fully rotating to completely locked position.Im leaning toward not going fully into battery.
