Default Hard Closing Bolt

I'm having a problem with the bolt closing down on a newly aquired used Rem 700 ADL in 25.06. The COL is under the max by .020 so i know the cartridge isn't to long. This is with my handloads as i haven't tried any factory loads yet. The bolt will slide just fine up to the cartridge but when you try to push the bolt down in the slot it's really tight and also when you try to bring it back up. The COL are the same on all these rounds but with a couple of the rounds you can't push the bolt down at all period. Could someone give a little insight as to what may be causing this? Thank You!
