To clean the bore and barrel, use any
standard .22 caliber commercial cleaning
rod and cleaning patches. Clean the barrel
with powder solvent and wipe lightly with
gun oil after cleaning.
Cleaning the action
We recommend that you wear safety
glasses while disassembling this rifle.
We recommend cleaning the inside of the
receiver, bolt face, extractors, and breech
end of the barrel (around the chamber)
after firing each 250 rounds. (Frequency of
cleaning may depend on brand of ammu-
nition used.) A toothbrush and commercial
gun cleaning solvent will simplify the job.
(Be sure to follow manufacturer of gun
cleaner’s directions, as some chemicals
may damage the synthetic trigger guard.)
The steps listed below should be followed
carefully to assure proper disassembly,
cleaning and reassembly.
Step #1 — With the safety on SAFE,
remove the magazine and clear the
action several times to be sure the cham-
ber is empty. Close the bolt (See H).
Step #2 — Unscrew takedown screws A
and B as shown in I. (For the 70PSS, one
end of the spanner wrench is a screw dri-
ver.) Remove the trigger guard assembly.
Separate the rifle into two segments, the
stock and the barreled action.
