I recently ventured into this very exercise for my Rem 700.
After looking at several youtube vids i realized the string method would likely drive me nuts and add stress to my life (job is stressful enough - at home peace must rule!).
So for ~$19 i bought this nifty firing pin assembly removal tool:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ZN50W6O/?tag=lrhmag19-20
It is sooo easy to use and makes the "job" fun and absolutely not stressful.
Also, since disassembling the bolt was what i wanted to do, i picked up a firing pin disassembly tool:
https://www.midwestgunworks.com/product-display.html?Product_Code=SIN22500
and this ejector compression tool:
https://www.midwestgunworks.com/product-display.html?Product_Code=SIN22550
So for around $80 i can completely disassemble a Rem 700 bolt with minimal (zero?) hassle and can do so in my home office (not even have to go into the garage).
