Failure to Fire - Remove the firing pin and look at it closely and see the step in the pin where it is relieved inside the rim area.  Stone it down some more around .008 deeper.  This allows the pin to strike harder.

Failure to Eject - Put a round in the bolt and see if the extractor goes in fully to the side of the case.  If it does not, simply pull the extractor and spread the extractor end open a little with a screwdriver on my Leatherman Micra.  Put it back in and should now grab the rim on any brand at the rim and side of case.

While you have it apart relieve the rebounding struts lower end a little for better hammer strike.

The trigger, yep, you can pick the gun up with it.  My gauge only goes up to 72 oz.  and it takes more to set it off.  It is now 2.5lbs with just a little stoning and bending the trigger return spring.  Trigger job done.

My 2 cents.   Good Luck
