You really need to take the rifle to a competent gunsmith to adjust a trigger.You need a scale spring to set it.Then you drop it on its butt end to see if it fires by shock.

The only advantage I see, generally, for the push feed is that it makes for a much stronger package. More of the cartridge case is supported, which was Remington's big noise in their advertising when they brought out the 721.
I might do it on a padded carpet, but all my M70s have steel butts and I would not want them hiting even a wooden floor.Why not? Thats to simulate a fall from a stand.A small bounce,not of the roof.of your home.Just hold it in your hand,and let it bump the floor while cocked .Its a safety issue.My rifles are set @ 2.75lbs
Virtually impossible in the M70,unless you take a stone to the sear. Trigger pull adjustments cannot cause that.Jim: I don't want mine to fire when you take the safety off...My gunsmith is one of the best in the south,trained at the old Walker Arms,in Selma,Al.
I believe jim in anchorage was referring to a bump test with the safety "ON". That locks the striker and it will not bump fire.
