Things I failed/don’t know how to do on that list:

1. Is this a trick question?
2. No (But I know how to find a book to tell me what to do)
3. Hell No. PHotoshop and I don’t get along.
4. :uhh:
5. No. But there are directions on the bag, so I would just read and follow.

I don’t think the “clean bolt action rifle” part is fair. So many states have anti gun laws, many people aren’t exposed to that. Not everyone lives out in the country and can go hunting, or has a sharpshooting team at school. The only reason I know how to do it was because I was trained in the military.
