[QUOTE="TBuckus, post: 945549, member: 49491"] Is it normal for a bolt on a Model 70 to close easier with the safety in the 1/2 on position, as opposed to the fire position? I don't know if this is new, or I just never noticed it before. Just got done bedding it and I am in the process of working up some loads. (first time with this rifle). At first I thought I had an issue with my sizing of new brass, but then threw in a factory load and it felt exactly the same. I'm bewildered since I can't see where it would make a difference. Any gunsmiths out there that can explain it to me? [/QUOTE]
