Light primer strikes w/Henning FP

Just got back from the range with my Limited Custom .40 using Federal Syntech ammo and was having some light primer strikes with my new Henning Firing Pin. Everything is factory besides the FP, I put the factory FP back in and no more light strikes. Any help would be appreciated.

Heavier pin hits harder, but nothing is a substitute for seating your primers deeply. Lighter pin decreases lock time. 

Which one do you like?

Lets see...

 

Lighter than factory...fails

 

factory ... passes

 

PD heavier than factory.... hmmm?

 

 

I have 25,000 on a PD firing pin with no failures.  the gun sets off everything tried with the 15.5 hammer spring and pd return spring.  just my experience.

Run a factory pin. They work great and are also free.

 

Leave it like it is.

Mine broke during a Stoeger class this year. Gun was in the 6k+ round count area. He mentioned the stock ones are prone to break.
