Hey Guys,

Last week I bought a used very clean 700 BDL 7 mag. I went to the range today and was having a problem with the bolt. It was taking quite a bit of force to open but only after taking a shot. I really had a hard time opening the bolt to eject the just fired round.

I than chambered a bullet and ejected without firing and it worked just fine. I also chambered a empty case and it also opened and ejected with no issues.


any thoughts on what the problem may be?
