Thanks.
Assuming you reassembled the bolt correctly there are three high friction areas which should be lubricated after cleaning, the rear of the locking lugs, the cocking ramp and primary extraction cam.

There are a quite a few commercial bolt greases available and as opinions go one is always better than the other. I use TM but even good old lithium grease will suffice. You don't want or need a big glob of anything, just enough to 'wet' those surfaces.

Just as important, include cleaning the lug abutments and recesses as part of your cleaning regiment.
