[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1600430, member: 24284"] It appears yoteslayer posed a very narrowly worded question to Timney with the hope of receiving the answer[B][I] he[/I][/B] wanted. That's called "having lack of back bone". I am very glad the OP didn't follow his advice, but followed the advice of others who recommended looking for inletting problems first, which was the problem. Anyone who doesn't understand that bending or stressing an action into the stock truly has no clue and lacks experience. Besides causing problems with triggers, action stress is probably the best destroyer of accuracy, right next to worn-out or just plain crappy barrels. Anyone who would advocate 'hacking' on metal before fully exploring the more common problems encountered when installing a new custom trigger, like insufficient inletting or the action being bent or put under stress by the guard screws when the action is torqued into the stock is just oblivious to what problems that can create. The "interdnet" trained can come up with some really unfounded conclusions of their own, with little basis in fact or cure for the problems that can and do occur in gunsmithing. Yes, Timney has very good customer service. I have used Timney triggers for years on just about every rifle they make triggers for (except the Jap). I have[B][I] never[/I][/B] had to alter a cocking piece to use one of their triggers, it has always been an inletting or bedding problem. And, I too, have installed and tuned literally hundreds of triggers manufactured by most all of the makers. It ain't rocket science, but it does require some common sense, which isn't so common anymore! I don't have to be 'right' about everything all the time. When I am wrong, I admit it.
