.270 WIN
I just tore down my flat top and it took me every bit of an hour. I have cheap e-bay rail covers with little metal clips over my fore grip raiils. I also have a 1" rail riser under my scope.
Before i crack it open i have to remove 3 sides of the fore grip rail covers and the rail riser/scope. Then i can crack the shell and tear down the receiver.
Once i spray most of it out with gun scrubber i then go back over everythig with G96 it leaves a lubricant behind that i find useful for oiling in everything i spray. It saves me a step
Ive polished my feed ramp but i still find with .22 it leaves a thick coat of carbon behind that i have to really rub off to get the feed ramp clean again. I lightly sand the edge of the hammer with 1500 then use a folded 1500 and run it in the channels next to the firing pin on the bolt. I also lightly sand the bottom of the bolt and use the folded edge and run it threw the slot on the back of the bolt. This slot is where the bolt guide plate rides in. That slot always gets caked when i shoot mine and i find sanding it really keeps the action loose.
After i do all that i spray some G96 into the hole on the bolt for the bolt spring. Run the .22 bore snake threw the barrel a few times and put it all back together.
I find this one takes me slightly longer to tear down and clean then the handle version only because i always have a scope on it and the fore grip rail covers are more of a pain to take off then the rubber ones i put on my handle version.
The 702 plinkster? shoot that rifle is a snap to tear down and clean. 2 screws 2 pins and thats it.
