I used to remove the bolts from my rifles when stored. Bad news when you realize you brought a rifle to hunt with no bolt in it.
Removing the bolt makes no sence to me
Yeah. Needless to say I no longer do that.
I store my bolts seperately in a seperate safe and room. Hopefully if someone ever steals my rifles, they will get caught trying to replace the bolts. You do have to have a good system to be sure you get the right bolt back to the correct rifle.
