[QUOTE="Grill-n-man, post: 5025326, member: 12966"] Yes that is common. Some are a little tighter than others. I’m assuming you have the FPJ one. Closing the bolt is seating the FPJ onto the nipple. If you notice the lip on the front of the bolt and it’s relation to where the FPJ sets you’ll see that the bolt lip is to pull the FPJ off the nipple. Also when fire raising the bolt handle is resetting the bolt to fire again or “cocking the gun”. It’s just like bolt action rifles, when fired lifting the bolt handle recooks the gun. It may break in some may not. My wife and son have a disk extreme and have a mountaineer but have also hade a disk extreme and ultra lite. Some with the FPJ and 2 with the bare primer and all are tite pulling the bolt handle up after firing. Problem most have with this action is not realizing these things are built like a tank and the bolt throw is like a regular bolt on a center fire. They lock up hard and solid. I’ve seen people struggling with the bolts on these guns just like people struggling with bolts on centerfires. And I’ll give you the same advice I give them. Grab the dang thing pull it up and back you ain’t going to hurt it. It’s a piece of steel that just had an explosion go off in front of it and you ain’t going to hurt it. [/QUOTE]
