[QUOTE="squeeeeze, post: 1733551, member: 34065"] It more than likely is the accutrigger system. It might be the accu portion going off before the trigger. That was happening to my LWH a couple years back in a .260 Rem. It can happen when the trigger is adjusted too light or if you pull the trigger without the accu portion. It feels different, the center blade part sticks out further when it doesn’t drop the firing pin if I remember correctly. I missed out on a great deer on my hunt when it just clicked and he was gone before I could recock and pull the trigger again. Next day I had a buck broadside and squeezed it of.... click ***, recocked and click, recocked and click. Thought son of a gun! Recocked and yanked the crap out of the trigger and finally boom! He was stumbling around so went for a security shot and click! He dropped right then anyways though. After that I was done with that trigger, I pulled the accu blade part out and now it is one sweet crisp trigger that never fails. Be careful though because it lightens it up a lot without the extra tension from the blade so I had to adjust it most of the way up but it sits a little over 2 lbs and very crisp. [/QUOTE]
