    Yes a stiff bolt is quite normal because if you think about it what your doing is pulling back a tightly coiled and thick spring.....it just gets a little getting used to.
    As for the squeak you could just remove your bolt and put a little bit of silicone oil on it and rub it around with your hand,dont use too much only a little because it could get sticky.
    Hope this helps
