6a) Lay a well greased patch over the bore ( picture #8 ) and press round ball into the bore
( picture #9 );
F picture #8 picture #9
to facilitate this operation we suggest the use of a bullet starter (art. USA 510), that will help
the introducing of the ball for the first 15 cm (6”) ( picture #10 ), then you can continue with the
ramrod.

7a) With ramrod seat the ball down firmly against the powder, but without crushing it. MAKE
SURE THE BALL IS FIRMLY SEATED AGAINST POWDER SO THAT NO AIR SPACE EXISTS BETWEEN
THE BALL AND POWDER-CHARGE. With your firearm UNLOADED insert the ramrod into the
muzzle and make a mark at muzzle level. This is your “Empty” or “Unloaded” line. ( picture
#11 ). Insert the rod again after loading your rifle and make another mark at muzzle level.
This is your “Loaded” line. ( picture #12 ) Check with this line when you put the wad (if used)
and again for the ball. The three reference lines (four if the wad is used) will give you the
vision of possible loading mistakes.
