We get them in the shop regularly for mis-fires and the usual culprit is fouling built up in the "corner" of the action at the barrel face...that should be a SQUARE corner...not a bevel.
We have seen SO many that were fouled ONLY there and squeaky clean everywhere else. It LOOKS like metal, but we dig it out with a dental pick and do a detail strip/clean and be SURE to clean the firing pin and channel carefully and be sure that the pin floats easily after reassembly before re-installing the bolt.
Not saying yours is still dirty...but relating what we find in over 65% of the FtF we get in the shop.
