Zero movement.
The bolt handle will rotate up, but not to the rear. I even tried a dead blow hammer (2 LBS) on it. (yes, the bolt handle)
Letting it cool, adding Oil down the barrel and tapping the case out with and old arrow shaft and the dead blow hammer.
(very lightly tapping it) worked 2x ago, last time I just let it cool.
