leverage is the best answer
a longer bolt handle reduces bolt lift far more than lubing -polishing- or lift kits
I've tried them all
all mine may have had timing issues when I got them & may still have timing issues
but the bolt lift problem WENT AWAY
when I put a longer bolt handle on them
several post in axis thread on this subject
Additional leverage isn't necessary if you fix the real issue - the timing. All the additional leverage does is masks the problem. On a properly timed Savage you can lift and cycle the bolt using minimal effort with your index finger.
