[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 1823613, member: 10429"] I think it's just the cheapness of the rifle and the tool marking. I had every thing removed and with just a little off side pressure on the bolt it would cause the sticking or cause the bolt to be harder to pull the bolt back. The gun was also out of the stock. So from what I can tell it may just be something that has to wear in. Sad thing, from a prone position with stock attached I wont be able to cycle the bolt without having to hold the rifle with both hands. I could take it to a smith later on and get it checked over but I'm in the process of moving so it will have to set for now. I also plan on getting it bedded after we are moved and settled in. I may see how it shoots first but I'm sure a good bedding job would help it out. [/QUOTE]
