Riflehunter Report post Posted August 30, 2019 I was wondering if anyone here had issues with these triggers in m700. I installed it into my 300wsm and tested at all trigger pull weights from the lowest weight to the highest. Even at 3.5lb it was slam firing 8 out of 10 times. I haven't tried it in any of my other 700s but I tried it with 3 different short action bolts and found that my 243 bolt would not slam fire even after dropping the poundage to around 2lb and slamming the bolt shut probably 100 times. I emailed trigger tech and was going to ship it back to them but my ups store has no clue on Canadian shipping so I figured I'd ask her 1st. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
10Turkeys Report post Posted August 30, 2019 I don't know anything about a Trigger Tech, but it sounds like the sear engagement needs to be adjusted, should be in your instructions with the trigger. Upon checking your trigger via google, it appears that there is only one external screw for the weight of the trigger pull. I would call their customer service and see what they say.

I'm hoping to drop it in one of the other rifles this weekend and hope it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riflehunter Report post Posted September 18, 2019 So I ended up sending the triggertech back because I couldn't get it to not slam fire on any of the 3 rifles. Since I had pulled the timney out of my varmint rifle I installed it into the 300wsm and still had slam fires. I followed timneys adjustments to set the sear and turned the trigger up to 3.5lbs with no change. What should I check next? Is it an issue with the bolt or is this a Remington action issue?

0uTkAsT Report post Posted October 16, 2019 Any updates on this? I have a TT standard flat PVD trigger in my R700 and I don't have any issues but it has me curious. It's especially concerning that it does it with the Timney also. Any issues with the factory trigger? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L Cazador Report post Posted October 17, 2019 You may have an issue with the trigger pins or the bolt itself. This is an issue for a gunsmith or Remington but I can already tell you Remington's answer, it's your aftermarket trigger. Does it happen with factory trigger?

The factory trigger would occasionally do it if set low. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
