Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Gunsmithing Timney Trigger and Husqvarna action

In the process of sprucing up my old Husqvarna, I ordered a new FN style bolt shroud and Timney # 301 trigger.

I installed the FN # 301 trigger on my action without any problems, and the shroud on the bolt.

The trigger holds and releases the cocking piece just fine, but once the firing pin drops, I cannot open the bolt. I have to pull the trigger to the rear to be able to open the bolt. It seams that the sear and the cocking piece bind and lock the bolt in the closed position.

Would a Timney K98 #302 trigger, or a different cocking piece rectify this problem?

What do you suggest?

Thanks,

TK
