(This is my first real post, so please be gentle. If this has been covered, jut show me the link and I'll clean up.)
So, I have this nagging problem with the rear trigger plate group screw and the front guard screw on my short-action, ADL synthetic .308. When I tighten them, the screws protrude and "lock" the bolt in. At first I figured the screws weren't meant to be that tight, but after putting about 80 rounds through it I discovered the front guard screw had walked out and is somewhere in a field right now. After ordering a new one, I had the same problem. I can understand how a screw can be too tight, but these have to be loose in order not to interrupt the action.
This just doesn't seem right for something that requires a small explosion to function. Am I missing something?
