I have a LH 110 in 30-06. Fired 3 rounds this afternoon and bolt was unusually hard to open and close. Shooting 150 gr hornady superformance, which I have shot probably 20 rounds of in the past. Now the bolt won't close completely. I had purchased a new bolt handle, but wound up putting the original back on. Installed a Tinney severals years ago and everything has worked fine. What could be causing this? Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm new to this.

Made any changes to the rifle lately?

The only change recently was the bolt handle. Bought one from midway and it was for a round back and mine is a flat back so I put the original back on. Tightened it to where it would cycle easily but didn't know the appropriate torque setting. That's it.
sorry

I'm guessing that when the bolt lever/handle was swapped back, the cocking mechanics were re-assembled incorrectly.

Holy smokes fellas, I found it. I had tightened the front stock screw and it was interferring with the bolt lug. Sorry to bother!
Glad it was that simple and cheap to fix.
if you had your full six years of schooling like me you would have caught that! LOL
Lefty, it's happened to more people than you can imagine. glad to hear you got it taken care of!
Hand raised! Happened to me too!!

Happened to me on my first build,fortunately I found it before I had to admit it.LOL
Willing to give back for what the sport has done for me!
Did I get that it was a factory stock, and you had to shorten the front action screw?
Seems odd... I can see this happening on a custom stock perhaps, but not on a factory one.
Check the action screws.
Frank and I swapped my wood stock with a synthetic last night and used the same screws and the wood screws were longer than the synthetics.
