3. Excessive pressure inside the chamber or the barrel may cause severe damage to the firearm
and/or severe injury to the shooter. This may be caused by obstructions in the barrel, propellant
powder overloads, or the use of incorrect, wrongly assembled, dirty, corroded or damaged
cartridges.
4. Stop shooting IMMEDIATELY and check the barrel for obstructions if:
- you have difficulties in chambering a cartridge or feel unusual resistance
-a cartridge misfires
-a fired cartridge case is not extracted
-you see unburned grains of powder in the mechanism
-a shot sounds abnormal or weak
Dirty, corroded, oil hambered completely, and the cartride case may burst when firing.
8. Wipe any oil preservative from the chamber before shooting and do not lubricate the cartridges.
Lubricants interfere with the required friction between the cartridge case and the chamber wall.
This causes stress similar to excessive pressure.
9. Do not use too much lubricant on your guns moving parts. Do not spray gun care aerosol
products where they may come into contact with ammunition. Do not overspray. Lubricants,
especially aerosol sprays, may penetrate cartridge primers and cause the ammunition to misfire.
Some lubricants may get inside cartridge cases and prevent powder from igniting. If only the
primer ignites, the bullet may become lodged in the barrel.
