Make sure the firing pin is smooth and rounded, it could have a defective pin. With the action open, cock the hammer, pull the trigger while lowering the hammer all the way, keep the trigger pulled to the rear while doing this, the firing pin will stick out of the breech face as long as the trigger is held back, you can then get a good look at the firing pin and also measure how far it sticks out past the breech face, it should be ~.040-.050" or so.
