While wiping down and going through my newest rifle today I noticed some things that I thought may be abnormal wear on the action and bolt. I compared it to all of my factory rifles with significantly more rounds through them and none of them have the same scratches, marring, wear. Most notably on the inside of the action where the bolt lever rests is scratched up, on the centerline of the action adjacent to it has a chunk out of the coating, and I'm just concerned about it.
This is my first custom rifle and I was a bit dismayed at how much smoother my Tikka factory actions were and how much less the would bind when cycling the bolt.
For context the rifle is chambered in 300 Norma, it is a lone peak razor action. The rifle was built in May/June, It has 80 rounds of federal premium ammo through it and has been used entirely on the range with a relatively slow rate of fire.
any insight would be awesome, hopefully I'm just overly worried because it's my first custom build
