Any time you experience a perforated primer you're pressurizing the bolt with expended propellant, and possible primer pieces. That's a good time to give it a good thorough cleaning at the very least. Nothing inside the bolt should be heavily laden with oil or grease, just lightly coated, IMOP. I recently wiped 3 of my bolts dry of excessive oil and lubed with powdered molybdenum disulfide with good results. If you're not familiar with the internals of your bolt, now's a good time to do so. I'd recommend at least an annual look-see and adjust for a frequently used firearm.
Good time to have a look at the trigger and sear, too. Gunk tends to build up there and can effect trigger action. YMMV.
