steamVR, but it's the controller itself since it seems to do it regardless of how i'm playing

here's a webm to explain what i mean
it does this anywhere. the left one fills the bar fully since it detects a full-press, the right one doesn't fill the bar fully when pressed and doesn't register a full trigger press.
it's been like that since new, it's not dirty, it presses fully and lands on the soft pads when you fully press it. 
in games like h3vr and pavlov, that's enough to make some guns not fire at all.

normal controllers like xbox and playstation controllers can do the exact same
it doesn't mean they're broken, it just needs to be calibrated
i can't figure out how to recalibrate oculus controllers.
