Ignition Tuning and Bolt Maint

Appreciate the info that’s already been stated in this thread so far. Haven't watched the video yet but I will.
The most detailed and informative info I’ve seen on the subject was posted by Alex wheeler in multiple post spread out across different forums. He checks every action and has stated it’s a good idea to change out springs occasionally. And that after making mods it greatly reduces pin fall and he has to rework the bolt to get that back into spec. He has also stated pros and cons of cock on close actions, cock on open actions, and actions that both cock on open and close.
 
Great thread, I love Greg's PR vids. Just watched it and will rewatch the speedy vid which ive seen previously.
 
Worst I have personally seen was a buddies berger. It could shot serious big holes for usually 4 of 5 shots. 1, sometimes 2 would be a flyer. Got ignition worked on, pin bushed and fit, different spring etc. Flyers went away. Still was in his head and he sold it.
Bergarbage rifles are known for horrible ignition, even the premier. Light strikes, wild ES, have to drop firing pin on a round 2-3x to get ignition, been documented by many.
