A few of them I did put back in the magazine and fired. They did go off then after a double strike. As the pistol is striker fired I can not just pull the trigger again (one and only thing that Taurus can do)

I could put these 4 duds in any of my other 9mm or even the same gun and they will probably fire but then i would have none to send back to Hornady. I am 99.9999999% sure its the ammo based on my past documented record of every round I fired in the gun. When factory ammo was cheap and plenty, I would not hesitate to go back to the range and run through a few more boxes. But at $20+ for 25, not gonna happen. I'll load some plated bullets and some xtps and try them.
