I found a bullet lodged in the barrel breech, tying up the cylinder. Squib! I suspect I lost rhythm when I stopped to check a charge and probably missed charging the case. I'm about to begin pulling apart the remainder of the box of 50 in case there's another mischarge. Guess there's always a first time! Be careful!
