My custom 22 is giving me light primer strikes. I’ve tried a different trigger, sent the bolt back to the manufacturer and tried different ammo. Same story, light primer strikes. I’m now thinking it’s a headspace issue. I tried the tape method of checking headspace. Put 1, 2, and 3 layers on the back of a live round and it closed with ease and no resistance. Didn’t want to keep adding more because I don’t want to stress the extractor. I measured the layered tape and it was .014 inches. Does that sound right with it being a headspace issue? Also, is it unreasonable to ask the gunsmith who spun the barrel to pay for the shipping to get this fixed?
