    Interesting, mine is basically the opposite of what the OP described. My bolt lift is smooth free of grit and resistance is linear. I have to run the bolt slow or it throws the brass off the bench! So far can’t get consistent accuracy, most groups 1.5 moa only a couple were less than 1 moa. Chambering is loose to the point I think the headspace is closer or past the no go gauge spec.

    The wrong lubrication can make the bolt operation feel like crap. Using Kratex can smooth some of it. Running the bolt dry is an improvement. Cleaning the action lugs and the bolt(inside and out) very well helps. Add a touch of ep grease to the rear of the bolt lugs can help but collects dirt.
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    I am pondering the meaning of this.

    Things my mind pinged;
    Resistance is futile.....
    Resistance is minimal....
    There is resistance as i push and pull the bolt...

    Well. I thought about it and I think it must just mean itself. Like linear itself is linear and to resist that meaning is wrong. Isn't it?

    Good point. Then should we measure resistance?
