    Check the case length and trim it. Even new brass can need trimming.

    If you take the case and bullet that was hard to close the bolt, adjust the seating die in by 20thou and check again in the rifle. If ok, the bullet was seated to far out and the projectile was touching the rifling as mentioned. If the bolt is still hard to, case is either touching the rifling or not fully sized.
