Owner's Manual

BE ALERT TO THE SIGNS OF AMMUNITION MALFUNCTION. IF YOU

DETECT AN OFF SOUND OR LIGHT RECOIL WHEN A CARTRIDGE IS

FIRED, DO NOT LOAD ANOTHER CARTRIDGE INTO THE CHAMBER.

If your firearm fails to fire, keep the muzzle pointed in a safe

direction for a minimum of 30 seconds. Rotate the ejection area of

the firearm away from you, carefully open the action and remove

the cartridge from the chamber. If the primer is indented, the

defective cartridge should be disposed of in a way that cannot

cause harm. If the primer is not indented, your firearm should be

examined by a qualified gunsmith and the cause of the malfunction

corrected before further use. Glance down the barrel to make sure

that no obstructions remain in the barrel. Completely clear the

barrel before loading and firing again. Failure to follow these

instructions can cause extensive damage to your firearm and

possible serious injury to yourself and others.

11 NEVER INSERT A CARTRIDGE OF THE INCORRECT CALIBER INTO

ANY FIREARM.

The caliber of your firearm is marked on the barrel. Store all

cartridges of different calibers in completely separate and well-

marked containers. Never store cartridges of mixed calibers in

a common container or in your pockets. See page 15 for more

information on the correct ammunition for your firearm.

12 EXAMINE EVERY CARTRIDGE YOU PUT IN YOUR FIREARM.

We cannot assume any responsibility for the use of unsafe or

improper firearm and ammunition combinations or damage or

injury caused by damaged ammunition. It is your responsibility

to read and heed all warnings in this owner’s manual and on

ammunition boxes. See page 15 for more information on the

correct ammunition for your firearm.

13 USE ONLY SAAMI APPROVED AMMUNITION.

The barrel and action of this firearm have been made with

substantial safety margins beyond the pressures developed by

established American commercial loads. Nevertheless, we can
