Vintage Remington 788 .243 win Unfired

I have one that is a 243 I love it and would like to have another.
This year is the first time having the dreaded 788 safety/bolt release problems 😡
Hopefully it was just needing a good cleaning
Let me know what works. Tried to clean a buddies 788 308 he inherited and cannot get the bolt out to save my life.
 
I've got a 788 in .257 Roberts. My father in law bought it new and gave it to me over 20 years ago. A lot of WV whitetails wound up in my freezer with that rifle. Great no nonsense rifle. My daughter has it now- bought a spare stock for her to have it fitted to her. If I had enough room in my safe this would be coming to Montana... Good luck with the sale of an awesome classic.
 
The factory never made a 788 in 257 Roberts, if you have one, it may be like the one I have converted from a 6 mm Remington
