[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 1822100, member: 10429"] I'll check the front action screws again for clearance but the machining on the race ways that the bolt rides on is pretty bad. I torqued the action screws to 35 inch pounds. On the race way you can actually see all the tool marking in the race way. I pulled it apart again and pulled out the mag. I had the rifle out of the stock just cycling the bolt and if there is any pressure on the bolt it will seem sticky. Its no where near the machining I have on my stainless 116 or the old Stevens I just sold. It was a cheap buy of one of the special runs from Cabelas that they are running a sale on right now. I try some different gun lube on the bolt also. I just have some generic gun grease from Walmart on it now. [/QUOTE]
