The bolt release runs up the side of the trigger, and is being impinged by the stock, find the part of inletting its rubbing on and gently removed it..

That is a fairly common problem with the Timney 510 trigger for the Remington 700. The little tab on the end has to be tweaked just right or it will continue to be a problem.
