Help needed with trigger install (M98)

I am trying to install a sporter trigger in mauser M98 action (military K98) that I bought from a fellow forum member. The bolt cocks and closes fine, but one I pull the trigger and dryfire, I can not open the bolt/cock afterwards, unless I keep the trigger pulled. If I keep the trigger pulled, the sear gets depressed and relseases the bolt. If the bolt is cocked, I can open it and slide fine. The trigger is fully adjustable; it is very nicely made vintage trigger made by Dillon. The distance between the pivot and sear was slightly larger that in the original one, and I had to mill tiny bit of metal from the sear opening in the tang. I don't know if this made a difference... Thank you for the help!

Does the srew on the bottom of the trigger housing come in contact with the receiver ? if it does loosen that screw up until your trigger has some movement or until you can bolt the rifle from the fired position . The Rifler
