[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1604651, member: 10755"] Interesting, I had a Rem 700 VSF that would get difficult to cock after dry firing a couple dozen times, then go back to normal sometimes after shooting one round, or other times 2 or 3 rounds. In the end it was an annoyance I was fed up with. So I disassembled the bolt and found the pin was hanging out and was bent, when it got to the point the bent end was pointing up, it would bind as the cocking piece was rotating, causing the stiff lift. Replaced the pin and the issue never returned. Now have a Rem 700 VSSF II in it’s place, much nicer rifle in every aspect. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
