Start with a thorough cleaning of the bolt and trigger group using a solvent such as Shooters Choice. Mis-fires can be caused by an accumulation of crud. If this fails to fix the problem you may need to look at the hammer spring. These do become weak, especially with an older rifle. What is the age of your ammunition? Try some currently manufactured ammo. Is the mis-firing sporadic or does it always happen? If so, you may have a broken firing pin.
