    Have you measured the headspace on your fired brass?

    Have you noticed if only partial neck sizing or just touch ammo solves the problem?

    Have you made 10x ammo with a 10 thou jam and fired it to see if that eliminates the headspace issue ?

    Is it possible that your FL die is pushing the shoulder too far back ?


    If all seems well then replace the firing pin Spring, age has softened it or it has spent a little time in the cocked position which is common for some bolts stored out of the rifle, which can soften some springs
    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time
