How To Load Your Firearm

Muzzleloading Rifle

See Page 22 for Shotgun and Centerfire Rifle Instructions

Warning

Before loading this or any firearm, always check the bore to be sure it is

free of grease, oil or any other obstruction. BE SURE the chamber is

empty and the entire barrel is clear. Open the breech and remove the

breech plug using the wrench so you can visually check the full length of

the barrel for any obstruction by looking through the chamber end of the

barrel. Failure to do so may damage your firearm and can result in

accidental death or serious injury.

Warning

Unlike cartridges or shells which are factory made to exacting

specifications to ensure consistent shooting performance, muzzleloading

requires that you create your own load for each shot. The performance,

safety and consistency of each shot depends entirely upon your following

these instructions precisely. Failure to do so can result in accidental

death or serious injury.

Warning

Before charging your muzzleloading rifle for the first time, it is very

important that you perform the following steps. Failure to do so may

damage your firearm and can result in accidental death or serious injury.

1. Make sure the safety is set to the ON position.

Open the breech and use the breech plug

wrench to carefully remove the breech plug.

Using a cleaning rod and a

patch, make sure the

barrel is clear of all oil. Oil can affect the

performance of the Pyrodex and sabot bullet and

can create a hazardous situation.

2. Once the barrel is clean, apply a very light coating of oil to the

threads of the breech plug and replace in breech, tightening securely.

It is necessary to recoat the threads with oil regularly to ensure easy

removal.
