Owner's Manual

THE BASE OF EACH CARTRIDGE MUST BE FLUSH WITH THE REAR OF THE

MAGAZINE. IF THE NOSE OF A CARTRIDGE PROTRUDES BEYOND THE

FRONT OF THE MAGAZINE, IT COULD CAUSE FEEDING PROBLEMS OR

INTERFERE WHEN INSERTING THE MAGAZINE INTO THE RIFLE.

5 After loading the magazine, insert the magazine into the magazine

block of the rifle until it locks in place.

LOADING THE CHAMBER

WHEN LOADING YOUR RIFLE ALWAYS KEEP THE MUZZLE POINTED IN

A SAFE DIRECTION, ALWAYS PLACE THE “SAFETY” IN THE ON SAFE

POSITION AND KEEP YOUR FINGERS AWAY FROM THE TRIGGER. FAILURE

TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY

OR DEATH.

DO NOT CARRY YOUR RIFLE WITH A CARTRIDGE IN THE CHAMBER TO

AVOID ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE. WHEN FIRING IS NO LONGER IMMINENT,

MAKE SURE THE “SAFETY” IS IN THE ON SAFE POSITION AND UNLOAD

THE CHAMBER. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS COULD RESULT

IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

LOADING THE CHAMBER FROM THE MAGAZINE

1 Make sure the “safety” is in the on safe position and the muzzle is

pointed in a safe direction.

2 Close the bolt using the bolt lock as detailed on page 13.

3 Load the magazine in one of the methods explained previously.

4 Swing the floorplate and loaded magazine upwards or insert the

detachable box magazine until retained by the magazine catch.

5 If shooting is imminent, a cartridge can now be moved from the

magazine to the chamber by pulling back fully on the operating

handle and releasing it, allowing the bolt to slam closed from the

open position. If the bolt is not allowed to close in this manner,
