Manual

The bolt of your 22 LR Classic can be in 2 positions. It can be locked in the rear-

ward position, held by the bolt stop, or it can be fully forward against the cham-

ber of the barrel.

1. If the bolt is locked in the rearward position by the bolt stop, once the mag-

azine is inserted into the action, release the bolt from its locked position by

pulling slightly rearward on the operating handle and then letting go. The bolt

will travel forward, strip a cartridge from the magazine and push it into the

chamber. The rifle is now loaded. The safety should be in the “ON” position.

2. If the bolt is in the closed position, once the magazine has been seated, pull

the bolt fully rearward by grasping the operating handle. When the bolt is fully

rearward, release the operating handle. The bolt will move forward, strip a car-

tridge from the magazine and push the cartridge into the chamber. The rifle is

now loaded and the safety should be in the “ON” position.

If the cartridge fails to fully enter the chamber, do not apply force to the

bolt handle to aid in the chambering of the cartridge. If the cartridge does

not fully chamber - eject it from the rifle. FAILURE TO HEED THIS

WARNING MAY RESULT IN A N ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE AND

CAN BE HAZARDOUS TO THE SHOOTER OR BYSTANDERS AND

CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

ward to the “OFF” position and pull the trigger. The rifle will now fire each time

the trigger is pulled until all the cartridges in the magazine and the one in the

chamber have been fired. Firing will automatically rechamber a cartridge and

recock the (internal) hammer.

tion at all times unless you are actually engaged in the act of shooting.
