Remington 710 bolt disassembly, cleaning and reassembly.

- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- In this video I share with you the procedure on how to remove, disassemble, clean and reassemble the bolt (carrier group) from the Remington 710 bolt action rifle. I made this video because on UA-cam I didn't see any videos for this procedure that were easy to view and follow so I made one myself. Please, let me know any tips or tricks you guys use when you disassemble and clean your bolts from your rifles. Thanks!!

Something that I forgot to mention. You need to push the bolt release lever back down once you have placed the bolt back into the receiver and have locked the bolt handle back into place.
Do u know how to put a new mag release mine broke
It helped me fix my can't wait to go out and get to play
@@markhaas4403 no
I am a pistol guy and bought a 770 in .308 for my great nephew but the bolt handle broke as they often due. Sent it to Alaska to a guy who TIGs them properly (instead of silver soldier). Didn't touch it for a year and went to install the bolt.
The head was 180 out. (We all make mistakes). You video helped me fix it. Thanks.
Glad to help!! Thanks for watching!
@CraigMiller How about an addy for that Alaska fellow and what he charged you? Also, how is the repair holding? I have a 770 and the bolt handle is ok so far, but I'd like to have it reinforced via a tig weld so it won't break in the future.
@@dkeith45 VERY happy with quality and speed. Here were his costs.
As per instructions-
Cost-
$50.00 cash,check,money order payable to ACCU-TIG or to me personally.

Thanks
Total=$65.00
I will take care of packaging/label's etc.

@@WW2Historynut ACCU-TIG! That fellow may indeed solve my problem! Gonna give him a call. Finally a reasonable solution. : )
@@dkeith45 You will have a problem if you have tried to weld it already. He does great work but was adamant that I had not tried to weld it myself first.
Thank you so much for this video ! Cleaning my dads 270 he passed in 2012 and it brings back so many memories of him hunting with this rifle. I bring it out every now and then to hunt with. Thank you once again.
Glad to help and that is awesome that you are holding onto that 710!
I can't believe how much difference that makes. I rarely clean the bolt on my rifles unless they get wet. Cleaning this one out I found grease inside that reminded me of the packing grease on a new Mosin-Nagant. After I cleaned up and added a little light lube, it really wasn't that bad.
Yup! Very similar to cosmolene, that or just a decade or two of exposre to the elemements. Definitely helped out! Thanks for watching!
Just bought a .308 770 from my father in-law for a steal but it was in serious need of tlc. Gummy bolt, horrible trigger action and surface rust. After following along with this vid for cleaning the bolt, copious amounts of CLP and 0000 steel wool, I'm confident I can fill my freezer this fall. It may be a budget rifle, but after a good deep cleaning, it cycles and functions way better than people claim it does from the factory. On to spraypainting camo on it next. Thanks so much for this. I found tons of vids on field stripping but nothing this detailed for the bolt. You turned my almost-regrettable purchase into a rifle I'm happy to beat up and put to good use.
Awesome!! I also made a 710 rifle cleaning video that you can check out but it sounds like you are all set!
Saved me tonight when the bolt came apart trying to decock it. Thanks man
Glad to help!
@@travisp11 you made it simple that was a tough 35 minutes till I found your video
@@scubapete2162 I tend to be chatty at times but when I make these videos I try to keep the absolute beginner in mind. Thanks for watching!
THANK YOU THANK YOU My bolt fell off my bench and separated and went crazy trying to figure it out how it went back. Your video help more than I can say.
Glad to help!
Great how to video Travis. I've had my 710 (30-06) since 2007 and love it. I don't understand the complaints either. The action on mine is just as smooth as any other bolt action I have. Accuracy is pretty awesome for my needs. Winchester 180 grain ammo from Wally World and holding a 1 1/2" grouping at 200 yards... I've been looking for a 710 in .243, so I am a bit jealous of yours. Especially a good broken in rifle. Thanks for the info and have a great day.
Thanks for watching! I guess the 710s had a special manufacture process that made them very accurate. Definitely with the money they are now going up in price.
People that complain about this gun don't have it and just parrot what other people say. I would have never purchased it but I got one for free and it literally exceeded my expectations and shoots better than my custom 700 in 308.
Awesome video. The instructions even worked on my Remington 770. The bolt now moves soooo smooth.
Larry Gragg Nice! Im glad it worked for ya!!
thank god i found this first time cleaning the bolt on my rifle i got a Remington 783 no has done a video on how to take apart and clean the bolt from what i can tell im new to bolt actions lol owned a shotgun for about 3 years so this was a lot of help
Jacob Ireland I am glad to help! Thank you for watching!
Thankyou so much for you clear and informative video because you I was able to do all you have shown on my Remington 770. Greatly appreciated.
Glad to help!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Son ripped the bolt out while checking the site a couple weeks ago, haven’t been able to get it back in since, everything looked right but wasn’t lining up, when you mentioned the small half cock notch I put that hook there and it got everything lined lined up properly, the hook was in the big notch before since it wasn’t removed properly. So now I have a clean bolt assembly and a functioning gun the day before rifle opens.👍
Glad to help and happy hunting!
I just ran into the same thing, scared the crap out of me. Thanks for the video. Helped a ton
Outstanding now it’s my turn to try.
Great video I have the 7mm mag 710 and the bolt was very stiff been looking for a video on disassembly of the bolt not fond of trail an error upon taking the bolt apart found a lot of grease inside once cleaned the bolt loosened up now it functions very well thank you
Sounds good! Glad to help!
Interestingly, the 770 solved the bolt head problem, it can only go on one way. Or at least the 770 I have is like this. There is a flat inside the bolt bore so the head can only go on one way. Too bad they still hadn't figured out the problem of the bolt handle breaking off, or the bolt stop fracturing. Thankfully someone in this thread mentioned ACCU-TIG as a good solution to the bolt handle problem.
Good info........I took mine apart to clean all the grease out, buff, and re-lube..........Simple. I use this 30.06 for long shots....The factory scope is good for 200 yds. I normally don't shoot wildlife more than 100 yds. If the target was more than 200 yds, I'd definitely get another scope.....So the package fits my purpose. I got it at a good price and it only had maybe five shots through it. Bought it for $75 so I'm not complaining. Just had to clean all the packing grease. Have an armorers certification through the military but their weapons are somewhat different than civilian models............Thanks
Thanks for watching!
30/06 has noticeable more power that 308. 308 May be slightly more accurate for those shotters who shoot 1000 yards and slit hairs. Myself??? Im not one of this guys. 250 to 300 yards is more than enough for hunting or for overwatch in a defensive compasity. If I can hit a small melon at a little over 300 yards in content. Idk anywhere in at where there is 300 plus yards of open land. You can get 5. 6 7 hundred yards if you want. I just site mine in at barely over 100. After that I can hit anything w in 300 yards dead
@@valeriegogel4214 I have mine sighted in to 150 yards. It's dead accurate.
Thanks for the video. I liked to never got my bolt back together before I saw this.
Kyle Hatfield Awesome!
Kyle Hatfield I'm glad to help! I made this video because a few of the ones already posted had video quality that made it difficult to follow.
Thank you for help my 770 is the same set up
Thanks for watching!
I picked up my 710 about 3 years ago and have had no issues with it. It is chambered in 30-06 and I have 1 inch groupings at 100 years with Hornady Custom light bullets. Great video, not sure. The only this I would like to different is the trigger pull. Would like to have a lighter trigger pull. Any suggestions?
The trigger may be adjustable. I no longer have this rifle as I sold it to a friend but there may be an instruction manual that you can find online for it that would show you how to lighten the trigger. Usually, there is a screw to do this on the trigger group.
Very nice! I just picked up a used one chambered 270 up for $250. I want to paint it because I don’t care for the urban camo grey or whatever it is. But I’m looking forward to getting some range time in with it. Your videos look pretty interesting so I subd. 😎👍🏼
Bayer-Z28 Thanks for subscribing! Yeah, my local pawn shop has one of these in .30-.06 for only $225 with a scope, I'd like to pick it up. It really is a good, solid and simple deer rifle.
travisp11 I hope I didn’t over pay. 😖 This store is notoriously expensive. I don’t buy new from them because of it. Even their employees go elsewhere.
Bayer-Z28 I'd say that $250 I'd pretty typical of what I have seen. Anywhere between $200-$250 seems about right.
informative and clear, thanks!
mica wood glad to help!
How if you do Abit of demonstration shots on it ,for it's my first time watching your videos on this types of gun patients.😳👍
thanks for the tutorial of how to clean the bolt i have been trying to find it
Robert wiman sr Glad to help!
i have had the rifle since it hit the market and even the army didnt know how to clean the rifle.
Robert wiman sr ouch!!
Thanks for the help
Glad to help!
Great video !!!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much, you did a great job explaining
Ronald Mcdonalds Big mac thank you for watching!
i noticed you didnt put the lever back down also lol better late then never travis lol good video, you did a good job ! thanks !
mark yeah, yeah. I didn't see that later on, too. My bad, lol!
mark I'm just used to not having to do that on my other bolt guns.
gotcha understandabal ' i have done the same thing lol i do like your video and look forward to viewing your others travis ! you take care and be safe !
mark Thanks man! You too!
Well done. Looks like if you use a piece of a rubber hose for better grip and avoid loosing traction will help. Also avoids marring the plastic pieces of the bolt. I use a pair of locking needle nose pliers to hold the bolt compressed to release it from the bolt body. This smooth out the action more than what it was. Great video and very informative. ♠️🎩🎱🎯🇺🇲🏁🇺🇦🔱🌻💮🌼🌸🏵️🏴☠️🏹
Thanks for watching and that is some great advice!

This video was very helpful
Glad I could help!
BROTHER. thank you for this video
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video 👍
Discovery North Carolina yup! Glad to help!
Good video
Thanks!
is their a difference between the 710 an the 770 ?
The 770 was the replacement for the 710 and has more metal components. What's weird is in the Remington Forums people have shared that the 770 stock is a bit ugly but the 710 has a better trigger.
@@travisp11 so if i had a 770 in 30-06 could i use the pin assembly to a 710 30-06 in the 770 i tried to get a new 1 but Remington told me they cant sell me the pin assembly for the 770 i have to send it in to their gunsmith an im not comfortable with mailing my rifle in to their gunsmith i didnt get it from a store i got it from an old guy who had problems with it an i told him i could fix it he said he would sell it to me i thought it looked cool an it was a simple fix so i gave him $100 50 rds at the range an it was work perfect
@@draven1438 I honestly don't know if the parts are compatible. If you if take a look at both assemblies or maybe if they are listed as the same set of parts online you could use them but I am not familiar enough with the 770 to make a call. I don't blame you for not wanting to send it in, either.
That fireingpin body that it slides into that groove is there anything in it?
I wish I had an answer but I no longer have this rifle.
Awesome video and great teaching skills.
With that said I broke the J lock on the bolt. Shroud is cheap plastic 😦😕🥺🤬
Oh no! Can you get a replacement?
@@travisp11 haven't been able to find one yet. I'm going to get in touch with Remington directly and see about that route. The plastic was very cheap on it when it broke you could see that it was just regrind or trash plastic. And I think the problem with it is I can't get my bolt to completely engage and I'm assuming it has something to do with the firing pin being engaged with the Jay lock on it. It happens, but it was an awesome video super easy to follow along super easy to soak up the info I appreciate the video.
@@dustinmeatball thanks again and I hope you are able to get it fixed!
I have a friend who owns this, and the end of his bolt wiggles like if it’s loose. The part closest to the firing pin. How can he tighten it so it’s not loose?
I think the end is a plastic cap that pops right off so I wouldn't worry about it.
Este vato es un chingon.
Everardo Limon ¿Quién? ¿Yo?
¡Gracias compa!
De nada. I've never seen someone fully disassemble a rifle bolt action the way you did.
Everardo Limon Check my channel, I have a ton of cleaning videos. Thanks for watching!
I will.
I have that same gun. The other day while hunting, I shot it from my treestand. I reloaded it and I couldn't put it back on safety. I opened the bolt just to double check that I did in fact reload it, which it was. When I closed the bolt, the gun fire on it's own. My hand was nowhere near the trigger. Thank God the barrel was pointed away from me and into the hardwoods. Have you heard of anything like this before?
Sounds like the firing pin was in a locked and something inside the bolt was stuck or caught. There was a recall back in the day for certain production numbers of Remington 710 rifles. You may want to see if your rifle is on that recall list. Yes, thank God nobody got hurt.
Just from my opinion based on the vid, I doubt that gun has over 100rds through it by the look of that bolt, good find!
deadhorse .243 isn't exactly a cheap round, either. I'm going to try something in the 75 great range and also some 100gr. (if I can get it) Hornady American Whitetail. These used deer guns always seem to show more wear on the outside because of the conditions they are used on vs. the insides which seem to hold up well.
is there any way to tighten up the bolt release lever? mine likes to work its way up and then then the bolt can come out when you don't want it to. been using rtv when hunting to keep it down
It may just be worn out. You may be able to find a less worn bolt to replace it with.
@@travisp11 bolt is fine the lever on the side doesnt stay down
I have the same issue. Not sure if it rattles loose from recoil or just from walkin through the woods but I've yanked my bolt out of my gun more times than id like to admit. Even dropped it out of my tree stand once trying to get another round on a second deer, another time had a coyote 5 or 6 yards while sitting on the ground, missed and went to rack the bolt the stupid thing turned and ran right toward me i had to get up and holler at it. It didn't see me until then i dont think just confused from the bang I guess. But yeah ive learned to check the bolt release lol
We’re did you get that stand ?
Discovery North Carolina Cabelas, but they sell it on Amazon.com. I believe it is called the site in clean
I sited mine in w150 grain cor lock. W the ammo shortage I was only able to go d 125 grain hornady SST. HIGH DOLLAR SHIT. How much will it throw my aim off? Btw I never knew they made bullets that small for Ole Death Wind. Though 150 was smallest. Only ever shoot 150, 180, or 200. Didn't take me long to see that 150 will kill anything in America or most of the world
Valerie Patterson it’s hard telling how your aim would change. I’d imagine a lighter grain of ammo would probably shoot a bit high.

Welcome!!
Дружище! а как купить у вас болт в сборе, на ременгтон 770 243win. Где взять ,купить у вас.Как выйте на тебя дай знать!
это часть оружия попадает под ограничение к экспорту... забудь.. проще чрез торгашей...
don't use pliers... you can scratch your bolt... my looks nasty after that use boot liers...
ok!
@@travisp11 to be clear. In my case i scratched 783 bolt plug. it is bothering me - mean I have to spend extra 20 bucks on the new part.
again don't feel bad it is not your fault. your instructions was clear. it mostly my skills.
Khatuntcov Mikhail yeah, those parts are easy to scratch. Even the instruction manual says to use pliers which surprised me.
Very nice! I just picked up a used one chambered 270 up for $250. I want to paint it because I don’t care for the urban camo grey or whatever it is. But I’m looking forward to getting some range time in with it. Your videos look pretty interesting so I subd. 😎👍🏼
