Accutrigger locking up

[Grand Poo Bah]

Hey all.

I was shooting last weekend and when i was shooting my 12 f t/r bolt my trigger was locking up. I totally disassembled the action and saw what was going on. When I close the bolt the safety is sliding back into the trigger and not letting the red saftey bar move. I have to left the bolt handle up and hold the trigger so the safety doesn't move the trigger. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

If the bolt is hitting the safety the action is being bent. Try changing action screw tightening pressure.
Proper bedding will resolve this if it is indeed the problem.

Had the same problem with mine you need to make sure the action is all the way back on the stock, if you lay the action in the stock and slide the action there is a little bit of play there . Like Terry said a good bedding job will fix that.
