Welcome to the forums! Good to see new people coming here...

Are they just scratches or really deep gouges? It's normal. The bolt lifts up when it moves (not a tight fit) and scrapes across the top of the breech as it moves. Unless they're gouges, I wouldn't worry about it.

You can sand and polish those out if you'd like, but it won't hurt anything!

Vike is right, its normal and you can sand and polish them out but they will most likely come back.

Don't mess with the inside of the barrel (I assume you mean breach...) Just sand the bolt with some light sandpaper than polish it. It's eventually going to go back to being scratched anyways.
