Delayed ignition

I've taken my new flintlock out 3 times so far and I can't seem to get instant ignition. it fires every time but with a delay just enough to throw my shot off. I did drilled the touch hole to a 1/16" from a friends advice. it made it a little quicker but there is still that annoying delay. any other suggestions? I greatly appreciate all your help. I am using english flints. they seem to spark o.k
Here's some pics:
