Do you think it was your lack of maintenance or a lubrication problem?

I would have to say both. Never gave it much mind for a lower count round use. Just didn't think about it. Focused on cleaning and what not. bolt takedown with its “finer parts” kept me away.
Learned how to do it and wont happen again. Its just parts for sake. Engines dont bother me, dont know why a bolt did

A good mechanical understanding is a must! Keeping parts in order.

Not all bolts are created equal! The disassembly would/could be different between manufactures?

Are the recoil/decelerator pads add-ons and original wood finish?

Except for scopes, both rifles are factory stock from my father when he ordered them long ago

Outstanding rifles! The mod70 I have is a little banged up, but looking too get it restored for keepsake purposes!

I'm learning that too much CLP sprayed into my guns leads to crud buildup.

WD-40 does the same thing since it dries to a waxy film.

I have talked to a lot of gunsmiths that see that all the time. And some have claimed that was ne of the issues with the Remington 700 trigger issue.
