As many shooters would agree, the one-stage recoil of a bolt
action rifle makes the firearm simpler and more reliable than a modern sporting
rifle. However, even though there are fewer moving components that could
potentially fail, there is still plenty to consider in terms of preventive
maintenance.
With generally tight tolerances between the action and the bolt, pressure and load bearing should be addressed. Specifically, by applying Tetra® Gun Grease on friction points, a hydrodynamic barrier is established, which will smooth out the movement of metal against metal, while protecting the parts from excessive wear and buildup – in all climates, from hot to cold, and dry to humid.
Key lubrication points include the breech face, the recess area and the lugs overall. While you’re disassembling, it is also advisable to clean and re-lubricate the firing pin spring (of course, don’t apply any lubricating coating to the firing pin itself).
General Application Instructions
Remove the bolt and spray it with Tetra® Gun Action Blaster™ Cleaner Degreaser.
For additional effectiveness, brush the lugs, bolt face, bolt body and the rear to remove primer residue, in particular. Then, run a cleaner-saturated cotton patch or swab into the chamber and locking lug recesses, and allow it to work for several minutes. Use the Tetra ® Gun 3-Piece Multi-Purpose Brush Set to accomplish this. You may find the new Tetra ProSmith™ Tapered-Tip Swabs handy as well.
Spray more Action Blaster™ and scrub, as needed. You can also use the gentler Tetra ® Gun Action Blaster™ Synthetic-Safe formula if you are concerned about dripping onto polymer or wood surfaces.
Cleaning the Bore
Spray Tetra® Gun Action Blaster™ through the bore and then swab with clean, dry patches until they appear clean. Black indicates additional fouling is being drawn out, while amber indicates that old petroleum-based solvent residue is leaching out. For harder buildup, use the Tetra ® Gun Copper Solvent, and then spray Action Blaster™ through the bore afterwards to neutralize and flush out the solvent residue.
When you have thoroughly cleaned the bore, use Tetra ® Gun Spray Lubricant directly in the bore, or apply Tetra ® Gun Lubricant to cotton patches attached to a cleaning rod. Run the rod down the barrel 10-20 times until the lubricant is no longer visible. Now, you have successfully treated the bore.
