Thanks in advance,

IMO prior to shooting any firearm I've acquired, I always field strip, clean , and inspect it.
**EDIT**
Forgot I was in the 15-22 sub forum. Sorry.
I run a bore snake through the barrel. I'll put some CLP on the bore snake up to the bristles then pull through.
I'll moisten a rag with CLP & wipe down the bolt & rails to give it a light coat. I don't put any more than a light coat. I don't want excessive oil to trap all the crud that blows back when firing .22lr.
