What is the easiest rifle in the world to disassemble, clean, and reassemble?
Which one is the easiest to do all of those things (semi-automatics only, please)?
Also, what is it that makes that rifle so easy to disassemble, clean, and reassemble?
Finally, what is one of the most ACCURATE out-of-the-box semi-automatic rifles in the .338 Lapua Magnum cartridge or smaller (so no .50 BMGs)? What is the LONGEST-RANGE semi-automatic rifle in the world (same caliber restrictions)? What features make these rifles the most accurate and the longest-ranged?
Please remember that accuracy and maximum range are two VERY different things. Accuracy is how close you can put the bullets on a target, maximum range is how far a reasonably skilled rifleman can put holes consistently into an averaged-sized target.

Easiest to clean is my breech load, single shot 12 Gauge. Takes only about two minuets to clean and lube it! Easy cause it is only a barrel to clean.
I'm not even going to get into the whole most accurate round out there debate.

for the first one, that would be the SKS in my opinion, it's a Russian design, they were all easy to disassemble, clean and reassemble so even a conscript army could do it with little training.
accuracy isn't the weapon, it's the shooter, if the shooters a bad shot, it'll reflect on the accuracy of the weapon, same as a sniper can take any rifle, do a little research on what's it's chambered in and be a great shot with it, it's pretty much all experience when concerning accuracy, the movie Shooter(just an example) showed this very well.
I'd say the average maximum accurate range for the .338 lapua magnum would be from 1000-1400 yards, depending on the shooter and weather conditions.

I'm going along with the Saiga rifle. Based on the AK, and you can literally do it blindfolded (but aligning the bolt can be a bit tricky at first). Really, try it some time. You'll find it much easier than disassembling an AR blindfolded.

Re: disassembly, cleaning, and reassembly: I vote for the SKS. No tools required. 2-3 steps tops and you're done.
Cannot comment on .338 Lapua.

Why is it that I'm hesitant to give advice about semi-auto .338 Lapua Magnums to a guy who's worried about how complicated it will be to clean it?
Perhaps for the same reason I'd be leery about handing the keys to a 9 second door slammer to somebody who couldn't find the dipstick?

Most of the military semi-auto or civilian versions of select fire military rifles tend to not require any tools, other than possibly a cartridge to disassemble. They are also designed to be cleaned in less than optimal conditions.

Any Saiga rifle is pretty much easiest. It's based on the AK-47 and has only 6 major parts that can be detached without tools.
Most accurate? Match-grade .300WM is pretty accurate, so is .308
