That's a very interesting point you make RH, and now you're going to make me tear down my bolt for another look. I don't remember noticing the cocking pin being particularly tight, or loose. And all I did was polish the other diameter where it bears and slides along the action raceway as it cocks. Maybe I am missing something, and of more importance is how it rotates within the cocking nut. Hmmmmmmm...or does it rotate? Maybe it just slides up the ramp. Any opinions?
I can tell you my bolts operate very smoothly, although I have no point of reference with regard to how they compare to premium actions. Never had one in my hands. I polish and work them until I think they are smooth enough, but I'm just a pecker wood that's got too many guns.
