SAFETY
NEVER transport a loaded rifle.
Never use the half-cock as a safety. The only safe way to carry your rifle
loaded is with the chamber empty.
Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
Never point the rifle at anyone, even if it is unloaded.
Do not drop or roughly handle your rifle.
Do not chamber a round until you are ready to fire at the intended target.
Cock the hammer only when ready to shoot.
After chambering a round and cocking the hammer, do not put your finger on
the trigger until you have the sight on the target.
Be sure of anything that may be behind your target, in case of ricochet or
penetration through the target.
Be sure your rifle is free of bore obstructions and that the chamber and barrel
is free of grease or oil.
Unload your rifle before storage, transportation, handing it to someone else,
laying it down, or leaning it against an object, or before leaving it unattended
for any reason.
Old or reloaded ammunition is not safe. Use only clean high-quality
commercial ammunition.
Keep the ammunition away from heat sources.
Know the proper ammunition for your rifle. And double-check the
ammunition before loading it in your rifle.
