I just recently purchased a 6-month-old Majesty (HMR) off of Reverb
It stays in tune fine if I don't use the tremolo, but as soon as I dive bomb or anything, it goes out of tune.
I use Ernie Ball 10-46, and it's mainly the G and B strings. It improves when I put some tune it paste on the nut, but it's still not perfect.

Do I need to get the nut filed and polished? Or could this be something else, like the knife edges?

Appreciate any help

Most (non Floyd Rose) trems do this to some extent. The solution is usually to pull back up on the bar quickly after dive bombing, it snaps the guitar back in tune.
