What wear? What are you referring to?

I see nothing from your photos that is out of the ordinary. Metal parts rub together; they burnish each other.

FWIW, a little light grease on the face of the hammer will reduce the friction on the hammer and bolt body rubbing against each other.

just making sure the wear on the bolt and hammer were normal and the JP Spring wasn't doing something it shouldn't (other then making me want to fire it more)

The springs have little, if any, measurable effect upon anything other than trigger pull.

It looks normal. The back of the bolt slams into the lower, so if there is any grit on that face, both parts will get beaten.
