How to pack pelican case

Ok just received my 1750 pelican case. So I am bringing a double rifle and a bolt action. My question is, what's the best way to pack them? Do you remove the bolt from the bolt gun? Do you remove the scope? Do you take the double rifle apart or leave it assembled? Do you remove your red dot from the double rifle.

Thank you in advance.

The Cannon Myth: Why I'd Rather Hit Than Bruise

Let me preface this by saying that I'm not planning to have a fist fight here :) I tend to sometimes think and act differently to conventional wisdons - Carry enough gun, Bigger is always better ...

The Canon Myth: Precision over power.​

Let’s talk about the biggest flaw in dangerous game hunting: the "bigger is always better" mentality. We’ve all seen it a hunter turns up with a massive, shoulder-bruising canon 577, 600, Overkill ..only to develop a terminal case of the...
