    Exactly. Stop over thinking it. I've got a 14.5" 243.. Used on reds earlier this year. No problems knocking over deer to 200. This is generally extreme range for me and a rare shot. Close up its...

    Know of someone who adjusted a trigger, all good, applied the safety catch, all good. When he released the safety the rifle fired. There is more than casual knowledge to trigger adjustment.
