So I cleaned up and reinstalled the cheap crappy lock that my traditions deer hunter came with and it is still un reliable but a little better than before. It was getting to where it never busted the cap unless you held the trigger down while pulling the hammer back beyond the cocking point then let go. It now busts the caps from the cocked position like normal BUT it only does so on the second drop of the hammer consistently. Put the cap on, cock the hammer, click, cock the hammer again, boom. Every single time! I tried rem no 11, my home made no 11, my old cap gun cap primer cup home made caps, and even CCI NO 10 that should be too small and regardless the outcome is the same. Two hammer drops to make er go off. Thought about trying another lock but it's hard to find one that will fit and that won't cost more than the $100 I paid for this ol hunk o junk. I just wonder though. Could it be the nipple?
