Loading and Shooting Procedures (cont’d)

To Adjust Sights.

The Remington Genesis™ ML is equipped with a fully adjustable rear sight. It can be adjusted for both windage

(left to right) and elevation (up and down).

WARNING! Never attempt to adjust the sights on a loaded firearm.

TO ADJUST THE REAR SIGHT:

Move the rear sight slide for elevation adjustment.

Move the rear sight aperture for windage adjustment.

Move the slide or aperture in the same direction as you

need the point of impact on the target to move.

(See

Picture 18).

TELESCOPIC SIGHTS:

The top of the barrel has holes for the installation of

a telescopic sight base. Scope bases are available for

purchase as an accessory item. See your retailer for a

Remington Genesis™ ML accessory scope base.

Note: The use of telescopic sights is illegal in some areas during the big-game muzzleloading season.

Be sure to check the regulations in the area you will be hunting before installing the scope.

Removing a Charge and Projectile (Unloading).

Under normal conditions a muzzleloading firearm is unloaded by simply firing it into a safe and suitable

backstop. There are however, three conditions which may occur that will require the rifle to be unloaded

manually. These are:

1. A misfire or failure to fire.

WARNING! FOR A MISFIRE OR FAILURE TO FIRE, WAIT AT LEAST ONE MINUTE WITH THE

RIFLE POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION. A LINGERING SPARK SMOLDERING IN THE POWDER

COULD FIRE THE RIFLE AT ANY MOMENT.

2. Powder fouling or other circumstances causing the projectile to become lodged partially down the barrel

after firing.

3. The projectile is not firmly seated against the powder charge and cannot be made to do so with normal

ramrod pressure.

If any of these situations arise, the projectile must be removed from the barrel as follows:

1. Keeping the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, put the safety mechanism to the ‘Safe’ position.

2. Open the Torch Cam™ breech block so that the breech plug is visible. See page 12.

3. If there is a 209 primer in the primer pocket of the breech plug, remove it and check to insure that there is no

remaining primer residue in the primer pocket or flash hole.

4. Remove the ramrod from beneath the barrel.

5. Turn the rifle upside down so that the trigger guard is up and the muzzle is pointed in a safe direction.
