3. Loading the rifle
- Pull back the slide („On safe“)
- Open the bolt (see chapter 2.5)
- Place a cartridge onto the magazine
and press firmly downwards - with
the thumbs if necessary - so that it
snaps through the magazine lips.
Capacity of magazine: 3 cartridges.
Exceptions are as follows:
Caliber group
Mini
= 4 cartridges
Ultra Magnum = 2 cartridges
Swiss
= single shot
Shotgun = single shot
Hornet = single shot
- Should you wish, you can insert a
further cartridge in the chamber by
hand.
- Press down the cartridges in the maga-
zine with the thumb and push the bolt
handle forward all the way with the
other hand until it locks.
CHECK THAT:
The red dot is not visible, bolt handle is
all the way forward. The rifle is now
loaded, uncocked and locked to prevent
accidental opening.
4. Firing and repeating
- Cock the rifle by pushing the safety
slide forward with the thumb
(take off safety - see chapter 2.2).
- Sight the target and fire.
- Repeating: Pull back the bolt as far as
the bolt stop allows and then push it
forward again.
IMPORTANT:
If the bolt handle is not in its most for-
ward position, the rifle will not fire for
safety reasons.
Should you wish to reload for a repeat
shot very quietly, push the bolt with the
thumb more at the top of the bolt hand-
le, pressing the ball of the bolt handle
forwards with the ball of the thumb.
WARNING:
When the safety slide is locked in the
forward position the rifle is cocked auto-
matically with each reload action. When
you do not want to fire any more, you
simply move the safety slide immediately
backwards (safety on).
WARNING:
Always wait until you are ready to fire
before cocking the rifle. If, after firing,
the rifle is cocked again when you are
not yet ready to shoot, simply uncock the
rifle by moving the safety slide back
(safety on).
