CZ 550's have a button on the left side of the bolt shroud. Press it with the bolt cocked, then remove the bolt, and the shroud/firing pin assembly can be unscrewed, just like a rifle with a M70-type 3-position safety in the middle position. This sounds similar to the BRNO ZKK rifles that were the precursor to the CZ 550. Very easy to disassemble the bolt.

Of all the things to prepare for and worry about, the bolt is about bottom on the list. That’s my position too. And... IF the bolt assy. is gunky, gritty... it tells me several other things. Jerry

I always have Leatherman with pliers and screw driver. Have not found a bolt yet that I can not take apart.

Yeah, it's possible with just about any of them if you understand how they're put together.
Many years ago I traded for a Kimber of Oregon .223--which refused to fire one coolish (but not cold) spring morning. The bolt was NOT designed to be taken apart, but I managed, and found it full of heavy grease. This was really odd, but after cleaning out the grease the rifle worked fine.
Found out a few years later from Steve Timm that one of Kimber of Oregon's older employees was some sort of mechanic who figured rifle bolts, like wheel bearings, needed to be packed with grease. This solved one part of the mystery, but not why the company let him do it.

Husqvarna 1900 and 1600, Win.M70, M98, and Mannlicher-Schoenauer to name a few.

Brno, but in over forty years of shooting I have never had to field strip a bolt.
You know of course that now I am going to have to do so the very next time I go for a shot...the world works like that.

The 700 is tricky once the bolt handle has broken off......

Naw, you just place the 700 on the ground, then shoot it in the bolt with a pre-'64 Model 70.

The easiest and quickest bolt to disassemble may be the one found in the Arisaka Types 38 and 99. . ![[Linked Image]](https://s26.postimg.org/vdylrwqc9/bolt-99.png) . Remove bolt from action (easily done with the Mauser-type bolt release). Use palm of hand to push on safety and rotate it. Safety, firing pin, and mainspring slide out of bolt. Rotate and push forward on extractor if it needs to be removed. Only six parts. And yes, Arisakas can make attractive sporters. --Bob
