Have been in there...really not my favorite rifle to reassemble.  Kind of amazing how well these guns shoot; even more so when you consider the parts before you...simple in some ways, but a very compicated bit of design.   Here's more good news: if you manage to ruin one of the screws, they didn't use gunsmith pitch threads...hardware staroe can provide a replacment (as you find out with the O-rings).
