Owner's Manual

DO NOT USE AMMUNITION OTHER THAN WHAT IS INSCRIBED ON THE
RIGHT SIDE OF THE BARREL. EXAMINE EVERY CARTRIDGE YOU PUT IN
YOUR RIFLE. FAILURE TO USE THE CORRECT AMMUNITION MAY RESULT
IN SERIOUS INJURY TO YOURSELF OR OTHERS.
Carefully select your ammunition. Because your BLR uses a box style
magazine and not a tubular magazine, pointed Spitzer-style bullets
can be used.
The BLR is available in many different calibers. It is important to use
the correct ammunition for your particular rifle. You should check the
right side of your barrel for the caliber of your rifle.
LOADING
WHEN LOADING YOUR RIFLE ALWAYS KEEP THE MUZZLE POINTED IN A
SAFE DIRECTION, ALWAYS LOWER THE HAMMER TO THE HALF-COCK
POSITION AND FOLD THE HAMMER FORWARD, AND KEEP YOUR FINGERS
AWAY FROM THE TRIGGER. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS
COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
