Hi Matthew What Tom says ! But good that you are looking closer at the action and curious to figure out how it works from a hands on approach as well. You can get totally lost in this stuff if you first let yourself. Just take the few things Tom lists below for this single one issue. Try adjusting the rep lever height in one section without first regulating the rep spring strength, and then in another section do the rep spring strength first... then recheck both sections and see what you have then. Or try other such things when you have the time. Grin... make sure you finish by the book tho ! That said, being a little nosy (read curious) goes a long way in this business. Cheers RicB Rep lever height and spring strength(or lack of) , jack to knuckle orientation, knuckle condition, jack and rep lever surfaces , tight action centers ,and maybe a few more reasons. READ----- REGULATION ! Check your Randy Potter literature.I bet he has a whole chapter or more on grand action prep and adjustment. Tom Driscoll RPT
