The strain screw on the main spring needs to be tightened. Good ammo and primers is too easy to make. The fact that it worked in the other revolvers is proof that your Smith just needs a little more spring tension.

I have a couple model 10's MP. One had a lot of dried up grease under the side plate and caused some miss fires. I would check there and clean any junk out of the action and use a light gun oil. Dave
