[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1606017, member: 75451"] While “not” as obvious on a rifle as a handgun.... if all else is good, possibly trigger pull weight and trigger overtravel. The greater the trigger pull, the greater the firearm movement “if” you have excessive overtravel! My layman’s exaggerated graphic depiction of the effect of “overtravel” is this. Imagine that you are in a tug of war, and someone cuts the rope....you’ll likely stumble backwards onto your butt. Now same scenario, but you have a wall 1” behind you, when the rope is cut. You movement is much less exaggerated or violent! Again, this is much more noticeable with a scoped handgun, than is with a rifle. But, some rifle movement may be generated just at the moment the sear is broken! memtb [/QUOTE]
