Blaser lrs2 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Hi have a remingtion 700 with a jewel trigger fitted last night when I was out lamping I went to take a shot at a fox squeezed the trigger nothing happened taught I had not chambered a round cycled the bolt full round came out with with slight dint in primer . So chambered another round squeezed the trigger again nothing happened I then held the trigger tight and it fired went home and tried it again with empty case same thing if you hold the trigger tight it goes off any ideas please is it firing pin or spring or trigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gun nut Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 When you say "squeezed the trigger nothing happened", do you mean that exactly, or do you mean the trigger worked, ie the firing pin was released, but the cartridge didn't go off, ie a light strike? And when you say "I then held the trigger tight and it fired " do you mean you just had to apply more pressure to the trigger ie pull it harder?
