If the problem isn't due to babying the bolt, I would suggest to go to "http://www.milsurps.com/". I used this resource to get old weapon Technical Manuals as well as talking to folks that are really in the know about these old warhorses. I own a 1903 Springfield and downloaded several Military manuals that answered almost all of my questions. The Military probably experienced those same issues, that those of us who own these old firearms also experience, and has addressed them within these manuals. At least they did for me, as well as how to disassemble, clean and properly lube them. The folks at Milsurps.com really eat and breathe all of these old weapons and most are very forthcoming with assistance.
