Savage ML 10
There are probably three possible reasons for no boom...
First...is the vent liner hole completey open?? Could be clogged pretty badly
2nd Are you sure the powder is ok? What powder are you using? I think there was only 1 IMR powder(4227??) that was recommended at one time and don't think it is recommended now. sometimes 4227 can become somewhat unuseable because of humidity and heat
3rd.. There is a possibility that there is a crust of somewhat burned powder in the breechplug area. I have had no troubles with my ML 10 at all. Always fires. Seems as though the easiest powder to use is MP 5744. Good velocities and only have to use 40-44 gr.
Take out the breech plug and the vent liner per the directions and start over. The main reason to have the ML 10 is to be able to use smokeless ...so there is no big cleaning chore...as there is with any of the other black powder substitutes
