I noticed the other day that the body of a Timney (510T) I have can shift side to side in the BA, like the trigger shoe can move side to side and contact the trigger walls. I've spec'd them with calipers and the body is .3020", compared to a Rem trigger that is .2995", while the slot cut in the action is .3100", so I assume the holes in the trigger for the pins are oversized. Has anyone else run into this/found trouble with this? I've always seemed to get some random fliers with this trigger and wonder if it might be part of it.
