The primer strike looked quite a bit lighter that the others in the clip and was not enough to set it off. I kept all the headstamps the same on all the clips, but I am guessing that was not enough. I moved the first misfired bullet to another clip and it still would not go off. The second one went off after I dropped the hammer twice on it. I never had problems with my reloads on automatics.
I was going to order some new Starline brass to reload with and only use that on my 625.
Any thoughts on my misfire problem?
thanks,

You did not mention which primers you were using. federal primers are softer and will ignite with less force than Winchester or CCI. I have lightened the DA trigger on my 625 so that it functions reliably with federal primers.
