I thought I used that size of bolt. Are you sure it's not just the holes are very dirty and this makes the bolt bind? I cleaned mine out pretty well and even so it took some force to get them done up.

They could be 3/8 BSF. Yes they could. They could also be 3/8 UNF

Mine were a very different size to what I expected.
