Spent this afternoon reducing the trigger pull weight on a Savage Axis (without the Accu-trigger).
The trigger came in at over 8 pounds and cannot be adjusted unless you build up the trigger point that engages the sear.
However before I got the trigger to my desired weight, I at one point didn't have enough sear engagement. When I quickly closed the bolt the firing pin would drop (fixed now as even if butt pad dropped on the floor will not fire).
My question is: if a bolt is closed fast and the firing pin runs forward due to not enough sear engagement, could a loaded round in the chamber be fired?
