I just aquired a model 70 300 h&h. I have never had a model 70 before. It was in need of some good cleaning. My question is about the bolt, I found on the internet to remove the bolt, unscrew it from the sleeve and clean it. I did that and reinstalled it. What i found when i reinstalled it, is that after it is in cocked and ready to fire if i dry fire it the bolt rotates slightly counterclockwise. I never paid attention to it enough before to see if thats what they do. It doesnt rotate much at all but it does i can watch the bolt checkering and see it. I never owned a winchester and wanted to know if this is what they do? thanks.
