I purchaced a new Timney trigger for my Remington 700 22-250 AI, to replace a timney that wouldn't hold a reliable setting. The trigger "slam fired" on me, A SUPER SCAREY situation!! Than when I tested it with a scale, It would drop at 1.14 lbs/oz, 1.15 lbs/oz than .5 oz. Back to the new trigger. I installed the trigger in the gun and began adjusting it. The lowest setting I could get from the trigger was 3.4 lbs/oz. I finally took the set screw and spring out of the trigger and still could not get it below 3 lbs. I called Timney and talked w the "tec" who sets them up. All he had to say was "I was able to get it to 1.5 lbs" I guess he sets all the triggers? He had nothing else to say or help me out. He said I can send it back but they would not pay shipping so I sent it back to Sinclair for a exchange. Sinclair sent me a check for my shipping without me even asking. I have always had great luck with them!
2nd trigger. I installed it tonight. I was able to get the pull down to 2 lbs. I like my coyote triggers set just a few oz under 2 lbs. The problem was it would slam fire when I would drop the bolt hard! At around 2. 12 lbs/oz it would stop slam firing. I thought my gun might be the problem so I put it in a 243 AI and it operated the same. I am done with messing with it and going to call them on Tues. Any suggestions....Thanks Brent
