50+ years for me , NRA Bullseye Match , practice , plinking, hunting ( also some years a lot) have never experienced or seen another shooter have a "hang fire" they would go bang or not go bang. At the range , waiting one minute was the protocol . But none of the no bangs ever went off later....still a good idea to wait 30 seconds ...just in case !
