Have any of you experienced misfires using a variety of shells:?:
Firing pin making contact but not enough to fire the shell.

My son and I each have a Nova and never had a misfire. I use mostly Kent Faststeel and B&P shells.

I always use Kent in my Nova and have never had a misfire. I found that you could get Kent shells wet and they would still shoot very well, MUCH better than Xpert.

I have hunted my Nova hard for 3 years and never had a misfire. I have a SBE and a nova and I like my nova as much or more than the SBE. Sounds like the firing pin my need looking at....
