I agree with you. Recently I bought an old Russian target rifle in .22 LR from a defunct gun club. The gun was very accurate, when it fired, but the bolt was really dirty. I don’t know how to disassemble it. I just spray WD-40 every few shots before it seized up again.
You need to disasemble the bolt and clean the firing pin spring. It can get pretty dirty with hot gases and debris blowing threw it. Also the burnt particles will collect in there and get between the firing pin spring and cause the spring to not act consistantly which can effect accuracy by allowing the firing pin to react at different speeds.
hey Larry, I would truly appreciate it if you would put a list of the cleaning tools used on the vid in the info area.
Mr. Potterfield is one smart dude…Make sure you dry ALL the lubricant from your chamber!!!!!!Your talking about a bad day if you have excess oil in your chamber!
