Tikka Bolt Modification

Hi,
I've got a Tikka T3 and was wondering, the bolt is silky smooth and very nice apart from its really tight when you recock the firing pin after pulling the trigger.

Is it possible to do anything to change this? Its tight enough that if its sitting on a bipod, you'll push the gun over rather that lift the bolt up.

I've looked at the bolt and can see something that i think will fix it, but it involves filling parts, and I don't wana just jump out and do that with out consulting first.

I would've added pics but I don't know how to put them in this post other than attach a link.
Cheers

Grease the backs of the lugs and the cocking ramp.
