New or used frame? Was there a BB on it before? Sometimes gunk will build up on the threads beyond the end of the old BB. That could account for the resistance.

Occasionally the threads stop or there's some physical impedance in the bb. However, thats a pretty modern frame with a standard bb, so a physical impedance would be odd.
