[QUOTE="Punisher, post: 1048413, member: 76832"] I know what causes this, I am with Dosh on this... I would rather you seek help. On the x mark triggers (factory Rem) there is an inspection hole that you can view your over travel from. If you take the action out of the stock, you will see the problem through that hole. Either your trigger can't be pulled back far enough to allow the top sear to be lifted by the spring... Or the bottom sear has been adjusted so far back that it never makes contact with the top sear surface. If someone who didn't know what they were doing was trying to back the tension off the trigger to reduce weight of pull and adjusted the sear engagement, that will do this. ... Or you got one of the recall triggers that had too much epoxy and the excess got lodged in the spring preventing it from returning to loaded state. There are three adjustment screws on the factory Rem trigger, when you adjust the engagement screws you can see the sears travel accross one another. When you adjust the spring screw, you see nothing, and when you adjust the over travel screw, the trigger just moves further back. Don't try this at home kids... And I am saying this after I just gave you explicit instruction on how it all works. We have a saying here at the railroad... If you don't know, don't DO!!! [/QUOTE]
