#1 Make sure the rifle is unloaded.
#2 Open the bolt and slide back as far as possible. Then right in front of the trigger there is a bolt stop release. Push it up and pull bolt back at the same time. the bolt should come out.
#3 Go find your newest or nicest flat screwdriver that fits the three screws on the floor plate loosen them. When you do this the stock and receiver/barrel will come apart. The floor plate will spring up. You will have 9 separate pieces now. The stock, the receiver/barrel, 3 screws,floor plate, magazine,magazine follower and trigger guard plate.
#4 If you need to go any further you are going to need a gun smith.
Timney makes a great aftermarket trigger for the Remington model 700,that will fit your Remington model 722 rifle.
