I have an Israeli Mauser that while unloaded or loaded without firing has a very smooth bolt, once I fired it however, the bolt became very stiff. So I'm guessing its a head space problem.
My question is that if I take the rifle to a gunsmith, what exactly will the gunsmith try/do to fix the situation? And how expensive is it to fix head space problems in general?
Ammo used was Radway Green Nato spec 7.62x51.
And the serial no. of the receiver and bolt match (from the Israeli alteration at any rate).
