View Full Version : Hang fire with range ammo
I recenlty had several hang fires using PMC Bronze 380cl 90gr FMJ ammo, at the range, anyone else have this? its a very scary thing.....3 out of 75 rounds....
Hang fires or misfires? I ask as many confuse the two.
hang fire, pull triger wait 2 3 seconds gun goes off, very scarey, new gun sent in for repairs

Dang, those are rare. I've had exactly one in my lifetime.
Just to make sure - you don't oil or otherwise wipe off your ammo with a solvent, do you?

Hangfire is very scary, why you always need to follow the dafety rules; keep it pointed downrange when you think it is a misfire. I have had it happen w/ H110/W296 @ reduced loads in cold weather, spooky. I doubt it's a gun issue though, I can't imagine any malfunction that causes a hangfire. I'ld contact PMC on that one.
