Good morning,
I recently inherited a Remington Scoremaster 511. Seems it has not been cleaned in quite a while. No living memory remains of the bold maintenance, could anyone indicate how to dissassemble the bolt? Its unlike any of the rifles I've handled/own, which is pretty much limited to milsup bolt actions.

Thanks for your help,
-Dryzen
 
For the Remington 513T (the parts look very similar to those for the 511 but the book does not give instructions for the 511).

To disassemble:

Uncock bolt to remove tension on main spring, drive out bolt sleeve pin, being careful to hold bolt sleeve against tension of main string to prevent loss of parts.

Remove bolt sleeve, safety indicator, main spring and main spring plunger, drive out firing pin cam pin and remove bolt handle assembly, remove firing pin through rear of bolt.

Drive out extractor pins from bottom to top and remove extractors, then remove extractor spring from cross hole in bolt between the two extractors.

To Reassemble:

Place right extractor (having straight edge hook) into slot in right side of bolt, drive in extractor pin from top, place extractor spring in cross hole in bolt between extractors, place left extractor (having angle edge hook) into slot in left side of bolt, compress spring, align holes and drive in extractor pin from top.
Place firing pin into bolt from rear entering firing pin point into firing pin hole in front of bolt and slide into bolt. Place bolt handle over bolt with lug on cam forward and handle on right side. Assemble cam pin through cocking cam of bolt handle and firing pin.

Place main spring follower into bolt with small end forward, place main spring into bolt sleeve and small end of safety indicator into main spring. With bolt handle in downward position so that cam pin is forward, place large end of safety indicator into bolt against slotted end of main spring follower, align slot in main spring follower with small hole in end of bolt, compress main spring by pushing bolt sleeve on rear end of bolt, align holes and drive in bolt sleeve pin.

For what it's worth :D, you may want to recall that the 511, 512 and 513 all had the same take-down instructions ;), bolt-wise...:) - just be careful dabbling in it unless you really, really need to? :redface:

BTW, it's one very nice rifle....:cool:
 
In other words I should keep as is if every functions fine?

Its a nice little rifle. This particular piece could of aged better had proper care been given.

There's nothing wrong with cleaning the barrel ;) (a boresnake should do it :yingyang;) and generally dis-assembling :wave:.....I just hesitate at tearing-down Remington rimfire bolts unlets someting is no longer functioning......:(

The 511 is a great rifle - enjoy it! :cool:

I hope I never have to sell my 512....:eek:....I like it better than my Cooey 60/600's.....:redface:
