Breech cleaning..

On my new, old 94, the crown is great and I want to keep it that way. I clean my Marlins from the breech after disassemble but can't seem to find online, really clear instructions regarding tear-down for the Win.
I'm very capable and can strip and reassemble my Ruger Mark 2 pistol for example but am unsure with this gun and don't want to screw up.
I guess my question is how hard is it to get the bolt out and...how are most of you-all getting the job done?
When cleaning from the muzzle, is there a preferred bore guide that is popular?
Thanks!

I agree with the previous Bore-Snake mentions. I use them on most all my guns, even the bolts and like the idea that gunk/powder residue and whatever are always cleaned away from the receiver or action. Even with a bore guide you are pushing "stuff" down the barrel into the chamber and action areas:eek:. The bore snake does exactly the opposite.
