AMMUNITION
1. Use only high quality, original, factory-manufactured
ammunition. Do not use cartridges that are dirty, wet, corroded,
bent, or damaged. Do not oil cartridges. Do not spray aerosol-type
lubricants, preservatives, or cleaners directly onto cartridges or
where excess spray may flow into contact with cartridges.
Lubricant or other foreign matter on cartridges can cause poten-
tially dangerous ammunition malfunctions. Use only ammunition
of the caliber for which your firearm is chambered. The proper
caliber is permanently engraved on your firearm; never attempt to
use ammunition of any other caliber.
2. The use of reloaded, “remanufactured” hand-loaded, or other
non-standard ammunition voids all warranties. Reloading is a
science and improperly loaded ammunition can be extremely
dangerous. Severe damage to the firearm and serious injury to the
shooter or to others may result. Always use ammunition that
complies with the industry performance standards established by
the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute, Inc.
of the United States (SAAMI) or ammunition manufactured to
military specifications.
