High spot might be one description. The method was firing groups at different index points successively to find the lowest point of impact. This usually was the smallest group. Timing the threads was the challenge

Indexing barrels used to be the rage in the gunsmithing section, but anymore, if you see the need to index, find another barrel maker. This is why we don’t/won’t offer barrels that can’t pass our criteria and it’s why we order our blanks configured a specific way.

Guys, I have an issue that maybe someone can help shed some light on. I bought a V22 barreled action, a TriggerTech Diamond trigger, and a KST Bravo stock. I installed the trigger,and then the barreled action in the Bravo chassis and set the trigger pull initially to 5 ozs. It passes the bump test, bolt cycling, etc. The issue I'm having is with the safety. When mounted in the Bravo chassis with the bolt cocked and safety engaged, the trigger will fire on it's own when I move the safety forward to the off position. I removed the barreled action from the stock to get ready to send the trigger back to TriggerTech for them to look at (their recommendation). Then I find that with the action out of the stock and the bolt cocked., the trigger doesn't fire when I move the safety forward, so I'm guessing it's not the trigger, but must have something to do with the fitment in the stock. Any ideas what could be causing this issue?

I think I had issues on my KRGs with trigger techs. I remember seeing marks on the chassis where the safety rode. ..

Maybe try adjusting the trigger up a bit, and see if it stops? On my Anschutz 1903, I adjusted the trigger too low, and had issues with my trigger, had to move it back up to about 6 oz.

I would inspect the chassis closely and see if the trigger is rubbing somewhere. My guess would be that is the problem. If you find it is making contact somewhere a little dremel work should fix the issue. Also, as someone else has suggested try less torque on the action screws. I only torqued mine to around 30 in/lbs and it shoots great. A whole lot of torque really isn’t necessary.

This was a common condition with the J Allen as well. When you put the barreled action in the chassis, insert the action bolts and just take the slack out, don't torque them yet. Work the safety back and forth, put about 10 in lbs on the bolts, work the safety. If all is good, torque the bolts. If not, slightly loosen the bolts from the 10 in lb torque and settle/center the barreled action in the chassis.

Thanks Mike and everyone for the suggestions. I think the trigger is messed up. I got the safety to work occasionally when I put it back in the stock, but then the safety locked up in the engaged position. I took it out of the V22 action and it's still locked up, so I'm returning it today to TriggerTech warranty dept. in the USA for them to investigate the problems. Ed at TT Customer Service in Canada was great to work with, and said they would replace it with a new trigger.
 
Anyone here running a Huber 700 trigger? I am loving mine... I had a 2-stage at 1.6#, and then a 1 stage at 12oz. I just sent back the single stage and had John set it up to a 2-stage at 1.1#. Once I get it back I'll compare my timing on breaking shots between 1.6# and 1.1#.

I believe I can easily switch the 2-stage back to 1-stage and it should be around 8oz.

Yep, have seen that a few times with the TTs.

Some fun in the very near future with the V22S and Muller blanks....

Michael, man, you're killing us.... drip, drip, drip... a little bit of info then wait a few days. Any chance you can share some performance data on the V22S in one of those drips?

Maybe like the Lapua test center data for a preferred lot of ammo so we can get an idea of how well it shoots? Group size for 5 shots at 50 meters/yards... Anything...?

I know you're enjoying this!

:LOL::ROFLMAO: Might you remember how this thread started back in 2017?

Insert evil laugh....

I do believe that the "Head Skunk" gets more mischievous the closer his project, i.e., the product, gets to the finish line.

Performance information is the proof of the pudding ... once a few of these rifles get into the marksman's hands the fun will begin.

I'm sure looking forward to that day!!!

You guys are always such good sports....

Maybe I missed it but I didn’t see 15’s on the website.
Want to grab a couple.

Thanks

My daughter loves my vudoo so much I might need a second

Pics are taken and should be on the website soon. Call the shop next week, we'll get them out to you....

Glad she likes it, we have a few hunting weight rifles in stock.

I recently switched one of my V-22's over to a TT Diamond. It's set at 4.2 oz and has been working flawlessly for over 3 weeks now. Matter of fact I'm liking it so much I just ordered another TT Diamond for my other V-22.

That's good to hear, I'm hoping my issue with the safety was a fluke. I really like the crispness of the trigger, it's really nice!

I have one on my vudoo as well as my impact, I don’t know how far I can back out the screw but both are probably just under a pound. Best trigger I’ve put my finger on so far!

Having new stuff fail sure sucks tho man, but at least they’re getting you squared away!
