Looking for some input. I just had 3 misfires in one day from a normally very dependable rifle. Primers all look to have been struck well enough to fire. Ammo was gifted to me and is from a major US manufacturer...only thing that seems odd is the primers are silver rather than the brass color I am used to seeing...any and all advice is greatly appreciated.

Are you sure that it is factory ammunition and not reloads? If the strikes look good, get some fresh factory ammo such as Federal or Winchester and try again.

could just be a bad batch I have had reloads where I had primers that had spilled and must have gotten something on them, because i had 7 out of 20 FTF. Never had an issue other then singles FTF from manufactured ammo. Brown bear was the worse manufactured ammo I can recall for FTF in my experience.
