What does your chamber/barrel look like? If the chamber ledge is eroded or somehow incorrect, then the loaded round can go past the ledge instead of headspacing onto it. Then the round is too deep into the barrel for the extractor to grab the cartridge rim, or for the firing pin to reach the primer for ignition.
