steyr sbs problem

[profesional 111]

I had a problem with my steyr 300 win mag , I thought it was the bolt asembly but it turned out to be a loose allen screw. The screw that holds the trigger asembly to the rear part of the rifle worked itself loose causing the rifle to discharge on loading. Good thing I was by myself or it could have been serious. The screw is just in front of the grey safety button and if it is loose the catch for the firing pin gets pushed down at the same time your closing the bolt. Easy fix with some locktite just thought all you sbs fans should no this and check so it doesnt happen to you right when your chambering that round for that 45 inch ram.!!!!
