My 5.56 Bolt

[browningautorifle]

I find the carbon is hard enough after I shoot that I use the side of a screwdriver to break the carbon off the bolt and it chips off. I also have to go down inside the carrier to the corresponding spot and remove the buildup there. Then oil and assemble. Missing cleaning once in the recent past isn't a surprise Frank, things happen...specially right now... The parkerizing does hold some of the carbon there too. I used scotchbright to remove the outer coating and smooth that area up so it cleans easier.
