    Robinhood, thank you very much for your very well articulated response. That makes sense how you explained it.

    Glad it helped. Jim the forum boss has made some really good articles available in the FAQ/Centerfeed section. Much of it will help you answer any questions you have as you need to know more about the Savage 110 series of rifles. Good luck
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    And you are not alone. My 12BVSS will 'lock up' when the bolt is driven home a bit too aggressively since I have the trigger set on minimum for target shooting. Just a simple matter to lift the bolt to cock and lower to lock before firing.

    On some of these triggers you can also get them to lock if you put side pressure on the 'safety blade'. This can be fixed by shimming the trigger, probably best done by someone who knows Savage triggers. I just consider this a reminder that poor technique is being used.
