Hang fires or misfires? I ask as many confuse the two.

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.
