I just had the same thing happen to me, searched and it lead me here. 47 grains of freshly purchased RL-7, Winchester cases (fired once and cleaned), CC-200 primers, and Hornady 300 grain hollow points. No lube as they are jacketed bullets. There was zero contamination of the powder or anything like that. I took a teaspoon of the powder and lit it with a bbq lighter. It took a second or so for it to ignite while open flame touched the powder. I was shooting a BFR revolver. After knocking the squib out of the bore, I tried a second cartridge with the same result. After clearing the bore a second time, I loaded factory ammo in the revolver and it fired just fine. The rounds were properly loaded, powder measured to exact weight, OAL and crimp the same on all. I think two things are happening here; slow hard to ignite powder with air space and weak primers. Still, that shouldn't happen and I don't know weather I should be mad at CCI or Alliant powder.
