[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1154253, member: 77249"] I have a 700 that I bought about 1983 with the same problem. I ended up lapping on the rails, locking lugs, bolt threads, cocking incline and cocking piece. The actual lapping is not bad but, The clean up was terrible. I had to take the rifle out of the stock and take the bolt apart to clean the lapping compound out, and lube and Grease the threads. It had a jeweled bolt. not so pretty anymore. But it has worked smooth every since. I had tried everything I knew and this was the Last Option. [/QUOTE]
