Are you having problems with both rifles? I know from first hand experience that Bergaras have super rough chambers, I had one in 7RM and it was a nightmare, especially after it warmed up a bit.
What is your load info? bullet, brass, primer, powder?

Hornady brass
H1000 or Ramshot LRT
Hornady eldx 175gr
Federal 215
It doesn't matter how many grains of powder even minimum charge it has the same issue
I would get a Hornady headspace comparator and see how much you are pushing the shoulder back from fired brass. You may not be resizing the brass enough. Do resized rounds chamber easily just not extract?

They cycle just fine until fired
That hard bolt lift part is what made me comment. I always get a little drag along with clickers, but not "hard" bolt lift.
Hard bolt lift, if truely hard, with low charges may be a secondary issue.
Trim length? Carbon ring?
No matter right now. You KNOW clickers are an issue and the resolution is well documented. Rent the AW reamer and get the clickers taken care of. If there is a secondary issue, it will be easier to identify as a single variable.
Similar issues for me. Factory Hornady ammo ran fine. As soon as I switched to Peterson brass I started having bolt lift issues although I did not have any stuck cases. After lots of research on this forum, I rented an AW reamer from charliehorse27 (on this site). The process is pretty straight forward and does not require advanced tools or advanced machining skills. The process was nerve-racking for me but I followed the instructions closely and went slow. The hard bolt lift was fixed and my hand loads shoot beautifully.
