If it still has cosmoline you will need a degreaser to clean it off with. I use brake parts cleaner. I take the bolt apart, and put it in a bucket. Take the action off of the stock. Hold it over the bucket and spray it down heavily with brake parts cleaner. I spray a lot into the chamber, and down the barrel while holding it over the bucket. The stuff that runs off the rifle will go into the bucket. I swish the parts in the bucket around. I then wipe everthing down quickly, and then oil it up.
Takes about 20 minutes from start to finish.
