Q "The Fix" Bolt Lift (Yes I've searched!)

Hi all,

First time post but I've done my research/searching and trawling through all the Q info I could find so please don't roast me for asking the question that I feel hasn't been properly answered!

Obviously others have encountered the dreaded bolt lift problem. Mine cycles smooth and light but is super hard to lift the bolt after firing a round, like ridiculously hard to lift the bolt handle. Have there been any DIY or gunsmith solutions without sending bolt back to Q? I'm in Australia and not confident on thr customer support if dealing direct with Q in the US.

What do Q do to bolts that are sent back to fix the issue?

Any help appreciated, love the rifle apart from this issue, but it makes follow up shots almost impossible!
