It sounds a bit obvious, but have you lubricated it with graphite. Made a huge, enormous, massive difference to mine when I thought the ignition was prematurely worn out!

I had this with my fuel cap barrel, it will have oxidisation inside possibly on the tumblers.. It wants a strip down clean and rebuild at the worst or it may free up if you WD40 soak it ..then treat with a drop of engine oil... I could literally snap the key in mine and when it was stripped down it was just a small amount of oxidisation
