    Hi guys, good morning!
    It is just my $.50. I am not an expert but i love shooting, hunting and reload my rounds and i do heaps of research in everything i want to do before hand. I personally never heard about this issue but as Barefoot mention i think someone here has had. Regards it get hard to open and then close after few rounds sounds a bit "funny" to me, it "may be" a sloppy chamber that let/cause the excess build up of residues there. Shooting factory ammo should not "cause" it if the round fits the chamber properly and even if your barrel build copper fouling it should not inflict in the round chambering but in the grouping down range. Sure a good cleaning will show if it is enough for good or temporary, if still get "staked" than contact a friendly gunsmith or a friend with some experience for a go with your rifle and a second opinion.
    I hope it help in some way and don't "buy" everything just because this problem but because rifle cleaning is a must do, keeping your rifle clean will prolong it life and keep it accurate.
    All the best to you all and be safe pout there.
