    Mosins are cock on opening and the short bolt handle doesnt provide as much leverage as other designs so it may be that you're just not used to it yet.
    Also, as long as its sat idle it may have...

    Just keep it at .303 pressure levels and dont worry about it.
    .303 max pressure:
    C.I.P.= 52,939 p.s.i.
    SAAMI= 49,000 p.s.i.
    The majority of if not all .308 starting loads, regardless of bullet...

    Hmm, wondering if the OP's bolt is made up of mixed parts? Maybe a M'93/95 bolt shroud/firing pin assy screwed into an M '91 bolt body? If that's even possible...
    OP, does your bolt shroud have the...

    Ah, right you are. It's been good many years since I last handled a '91 and I forgot they have 2 position safeties rather than the 3 position of the later models.

    Short answer: NO.
    270 Win SAAMI max pressure is 65,000 psi, far beyond what the '95 action will handle safely.
    Also, the 270 win cartridge is too long for the action.
    I do know of one being built...
