Something is not right.
My bolt is hard to open on my K98.
This is with an empty rifle, not firing.
I messed up my original cocking piece and got another good one.
However, close the bolt fire on a snap cap or just empty chamber and then go to
lift the bolt handle and it is Very hard.
I took the bolt apart two dozen times and can not find anything wrong.
Any Ideas?
Maybe buy another Cocking piece?
