I picked up a couple of Timney triggers on sale for a couple of my Remington 700's. I don't own a trigger gauge, so I just adjusted them to my preference. The directions say don't go any lower than 1.5 lb. I found that when I closed the bolt sharply the guns would dry fire. Same thing when I dropped one gun -- the other has a really thick recoil pad. I cranked down the set screws to increase the trigger weight. Anyway, is this "normal," or did I mess up? Seems like a possible safety issue.
