    Stevens 320 not firing


    First time to the range and after just five rounds I reloaded and it would not fire again. Cycled and retried but just clicked and did not connect to the primer. Any clues would help.

    Did the firing pin strike the primers on the rounds that just went click? If yes, was the indent the same or different than the rounds that fired?

    If no indentation on the primer it could very well be a busted firing pin.
