    Noted Sear Locking problem with my New Savage 12 LRP after a couple hundred rounds fired.
    Trigger pull weight still at factory setting, that seems very light. In any case locking the bolt down
    fully is regularly tripping the sear lock, even when done gently. Good news is I stumbled on a
    bolt/chambering sequence that has made the problem fully disappear.

    After I Lift the Bolt to eject old cartridge, I switch the 3 position safety from fire to mid safe postion.
    Then I chamber a new cartridge and close bolt fully down as hard as I like. Sear lock does not engage
    and I can exercise the Pretrigger Blade front and back over and over to make sure not locked. Then
    when ready to actually fire, move the 3 position safety to fire position and pull blade and trigger normally
    for a shot.

    One Year Later - Update...

    Well low and behold, After about 500 rounds the Saftey/Sear is locking up with the slightest
    touch and the work arround is not stopping it.. Had to increase/adjust trigger pull weight
    + 8 more ounces to make consistant.. :)
