Dont know much about trigger works but im having a little fireing delay on my rifle. I squeez trigger then it fires like a split second later, really makes it difficult to hold my aim. i feel the trigger hitting metal then it fires right after it makes contact with metal. any solutions to my problem.

Robert almost covered it all ..................but if you own a firearm you should know how to brake it down and clean it better than you are. Just pull the bolt out of the reciever and soak it in some "Hoppes #9" for about half an hour then blow it out with "Clean" compressed air. soak it one more time for about ten min. then stand it up on its nose and let it drain for a couple minutes , wipe it clean , and lightly oil it.
While you are soaking the bolt, clean all the rest for the gun that you haven't been cleaning , wipe it down and oil it.

You might also want to see if the rifle qualifies for the 1979 recall for Remington Model 600 and 660 rifles. The recall is to "fix" the problem of requiring the safety to be off while working the bolt to load and unload the rifle. The recall allows you to send the gun to an authorized Remington repair service to have the repairs made on the trigger. If the trigger is in bad shape, the entire trigger assembly will be replaced. This will all be free of charge, (except for any shipping charges). For more details go to the link I provide below. And you can even get a free blaze orange hat! (see coupon on right side of webpage).

Sounds like the trigger is reaching maximum travel before moving the sear? Could also be a safety issue.. An old friend had a badly worn sear in a rifle, and it would discharge when releasing the safety....Good idea for a competent gunsmith to check it out before you have an accidental firing....Good choice with the .222!!! I have shot a few thousand rounds through my 700 classic, and out to 225 yards, the groundhogs never know what hit 'em. Good shooting, and good luck.......

Sounds like your gun is gunked up. Needs a good cleaning. You may want to have a gunsmith tear it down and soaked in a solvent.
