Residue in the Bolt of Your Hunting Rifle
Next in step – if you hear a second clunk it means that your firing pin is the culprit and problem because as in getting two bad laptops in a row are against the odds of life , two bad ….. is just as unlikely.
All in all you must deal with the situation on hand and in hand. Most likely the problem is accumulated grime and even “gunk” inside the bolt and bolt area of the hunting rifle itself. When the weather gets good and cold, the dirt , grime , and accumulated residues and gunk can harden and impede a or the firing pin. Try that in a good Manitoba Prairie winter. Hardened in the cold this stuff can harden and impede the firing pin.
The way to remove it ( assuming that you have a bolt action hunting rifle). is to take the bolt out of the receiver of the hunting rifle, unscrew the firing pin assembly , and clean the accumulated , cold hardened “crud” out of the bolt’s interior with powder , solvent, white gas or whatever grease cutter that you have available on hand. De-gunk the firing pin and firing pin spring and that should do it. If you are using a lever pump or auto. you are totally out of luck until you can get to a locksmith, which is more than an excellent reason to take your lever, pump or auto to a gunsmith before hunting season and have him strip-clean the instrument.
