He reamed the chamber out further. When I received the barrel back, I still had the original issues, plus now I started having occasional failures to fire(light primer strikes). This happened about one out of 30 rounds. If I put the round with the light strike back in the chamber, it always fires on the second try. After I started having the light strikes I replaced the recoil spring and striker assembly at which point the rate of light strikes dropped to about one every hundred.
When I switch back to the stock barrel, all the problems go away but the accuracy is also much worse.
Ideas?
