Greetings,
Hang fires can be dangerous and were more common with old military ammo in the Lee Enfield. The process if the round does not go bang is to slowly count to ten while controlling muzzle direction before opening the bolt. It can be due to the ammo and sometimes the rifle as well including headspace. Will post on this further later in the day.
Regards Grandpamac.
and also tip the rifle over when opening the bolt so the loading port is aimed at the ground not at the person on the mound beside you.
