Sounds like the set screws are not set correctly. I know you said you adjusted them but take the trigger out and adjut them to see if that works. If not then a sear problem IMHO. I had the same with my 32 cal flinter but it was just a matter of getting the screws set right and then lock tighting them in place so as no movement when I shot the rifle.
