How to clean a 22 rifle?

You’ll need some supplies before you start cleaning your rifle:

• gather a pillow or soft cloth to use as a work surface,
• gun cleaning solvent,
• gun oil,
• rags,
• cotton swabs,
• a small screwdriver or pick.

1. Begin by making sure your rifle is unloaded. Remove the magazine (if applicable), open the action, and check the chamber to ensure no rounds are remaining in the firearm. For safety reasons, it is always best to clean your gun outside or in a well-ventilated space.

2. Once you have verified that the rifle is unloaded, disassemble it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually means removing the bolt assembly and stock (if possible). If you are not familiar with your rifle’s assembly, consult the owner’s manual or contact the manufacturer.

3. With the rifle disassembled, start by cleaning the bore of the barrel. Use a cotton swab soaked in gun cleaning solvent and run it through the barrel from the chamber end to the muzzle. Repeat this process a few times until the cotton swab comes out clean. Once you have finished cleaning the bore, use a clean rag to wipe down the exterior of the barrel.

4. Next, move on to cleaning the bolt assembly. Use the small screwdriver or pick to remove any dirt or debris that may be caught in small crevices. Once you have dislodged any debris, wipe down the bolt assembly with a clean rag.

5. Once you have finished cleaning the bolt assembly and barrel, reassemble the rifle. Be sure to consult the owner’s manual if you are unsure of how to properly reassemble your rifle.

6. Finish up by applying a small amount of gun oil to a clean rag and wipe down the entire firearm. This will help protect it from rust and corrosion.
