I had one that must have been fired at high pressure. The bolt would seat up to the top of the receiver, but still had sloppy forward movement. I think the top of the receiver had actually stretched out of shape.

I suppose the barrel could have been set back, but obviously something was WAY wrong. I traded it to a local smith who was going to "play with it", but I never heard the result.
