First, the front stock screw was too long and prevented the bolt from closing completely....gunsmith shortened the screw and the bolt now closes. now about every 6th round, I get a misfire...primer dented, but not much.... good ammo....bolt seems to close all the way..........can anyone help...thanks in advance...

Have you ever checked the head space?

Now, I just noticed the big screw that holds the bolt in was not snug.....tightened quarter turn.....would that have caused the problem?

If this is an Accutrigger - if you don't pull the safety/blade straight back you will get this.

1.Head space issue
2.Firing pin protrusion needs to be atleast .055"
3. Weak firing pin spring?
Idk if a 1/4 turn is enough to cause the issue but you are certainty helping by tightening.
With all these issues I would certainly disassemble the bolt and look things over or have a Smith do it.

Take bolt apart, clean & lightly lube, reassemble.
