Default browning lever blr question

i shoot a 30-06 browning lever blr rifle and every once in a while when i pull the trigger it wont budge!! i missed out on a 6 point tonite because of this!! when i jack a cartridge into the chamber i put the hammer into the safety position and when i see my target i pull the hammer back and squeeze the trigger and nothing happens, BUT as soon as i jack that cartridge out and put in an another one it will fire... is it because i apply the safety and then put it into the fire position when i see something that the trigger wont move? any suggestions?? thanks

I think you need to see a gunsmith.

This is a safety feature built into your rifle. You have to make sure the lever is all the way up against the receiver or she will not fire. Another problem I ran into was to make sure you use a lubricant that will not freeze easily. This will also cause a trigger lock.

I hope this helps. MV out!

I've been hunting with one in .243 almost 20 years and I've never had that problem.
