Best I can tell you is get a good cleaning kit (Otis is fair but there are better out there).... my cranial flatulence is hindering my ability to remember any brands right now.
Field strip your rifle (I usually clean after every shoot), take out the bolt assembly and the buffer/spring then disassemble your bolt assembly and clean each individual piece, lightly lube (CLP is good) and reassemble, set aside. Clean buffer and spring and inside buffer tube. Set aside. Next clean your barrel with cleaning rod and cotton squares, recommend using gun cleaning spray and the cotton square will wipe it down- *Make sure barrel is dry after cleaning* Clean the star (can't remember exact name- brain farting) that is at the beginning of the barrel, it's the hardest part to clean. Clean lower receiver, if you don't know how to take all this apart just do the best you can with it fully assembled. Put everything back together, lube anywhere a bullet does not go *Very lightly* (basically buffer, bolt assembly, trigger assembly and you should be good. Check youtube for some videos or I can search and send you a link later tonight.
