Did two mag's with the scope and switched to the millet red dot due to the scope needing to be back so far as to clear the receiver. The Millet worked excellent today and w/o a proper gun rest and windy conditions I got it to one inch groups using 100 rounds of Winchester M22 Suppressor ammo and 25 rounds of CCI SV ammo for total of 150 rounds thru the Vic.

Toward the end of the 100 box I had 4 or 5 times it failed to fire and every time no FP strikes. So after stripping the Vic down including removing the barrel for cleaning and checking breech face. After cleaning everything I checked out the rear of FP and was surprised to see that the bottom half of FP was angled towards the bottom of the pin like this / a 45 degree angle from center of the pin. I can't remember ever seeing a FP that was shaped like this toward bottom of pin except in damaged flat pin from an old rifle that was also hammer fired.

So I guess I'll call S&W tomorrow and see what they say about the pin.
