Now I'm sure this was from how the rifles were stored/coated at some point in the past. Now my question what is the best stuff to clean it and prevent it from reoccurring.

Whats kind of interesting despite actual banging around these rifles have had (dings in the wood etc) each rifle has matching numbers, receiver, bolt, band and magazine. The bores on both are clean and not obviously worn.

Phil..There is only one product to use on all your weapons..wood stocks included..
G-96..
Even at -40 F or C...(The same reading in both scales at -40)..or freakin' cold..there will be no seizing or fouling and your mechanisms will be working easily and bolts slide fine..been using it for as long as it has been in existence and have never found another product like it..at one time could have armed a squad of troopers to the teeth with every thing from 9MM side arms to a 60MM shoulder fired rocket launcher..to cap and ball 1861 Tower muskets..
And they all got the G-96 treatment and were like new condition and remained like that until I reduced my collection size,,..thanks to our pinko Gummint policy's..to zero..still have the gun oil..but the guns are gone..
Best product on the market today ..use it and your problems will disappear ..
