It is not an overtravel problem and the loads are near the top. I am quite familiar with triggers, so I would rule that out. The latest trigger is a Rifle Basix and I only adjusted the weight.
Thanks guys
Fred Fred, I don't know how you can slam Remington when you installed an aftermarket trigger?????????? I would suggest that you reread the instructions and adjust the trigger properly! I would put the factory trigger back in if it were me. You might want to back out the trigger stop screw if there is one on your trigger. (There would be on a Remington trigger)
I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger! There is only one kind of dead, but there are many different kinds of wounded.

It only occurs once in 50 times or so????
Sounds like operator error to me, possibly aggravated by a mechanical problem. Or weather.
Assuming the bolt/trigger is clean and free moving (I only use Eezox in these applications!)
I'd check bolt/stock clearance, then put in an over-strength striker spring, assuming trigger adjustment specs are in-bounds.
Something is not right, and I don' think it's the gun's fault....Unless one has the very rare lemon...
The only true cost of having a dog is its death.

The damn 700 did it also with the factory trigger. Take my word for it, the problem is in the bolt. When you consider the original trigger would have a 8 oz variation in pull from pull to pull out of the box. It also needed a crown job. You guys are free to love your Remingtons all you want, but I would never buy another one.
