If you have any questions regarding powder velocities and pressures please

contact the manufacturer of the propellant.

1. Black powder, Pyrodex

, Pyrodex

pellets or Triple 7

powder & pellets are the

only safe propellants to use in this muzzleloading riﬂe. Maximum charges of

Triple 7

should be reduced by 15%. This means that the maximum amount of

Triple 7

powder that can be used is 130 grains.

2. The term “black powder” does not refer to any powder black in color, since

modern smokeless powders are also black in color.

3. Be certain that the propellant you select is commercially manufactured black

powder, Pyrodex

or Triple 7

are for use in muzzleloaders.

CAUTION!

NEVER SMOKE WHILE LOADING, SHOOTING OR HANDLING PROPELLANTS.

ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER’S SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AS LISTED

ON THE PROPELLANT CONTAINER.

PREPARING TO LOAD THE PROPELLANT:

1. Wear eye protection.

2. Make certain the gun is unloaded.

a. Push safety button to “safe”.

b. Remove Ramrod from barrel Thimbles

c. Unscrew Jag from ramrod and reverse 180 degrees so that concave

(hollowed end) is exposed.

d. Re-thread Jag so that the concave (hollowed end) is out. This will make the

ramrod longer and provide the proper length.

e. Insert the ramrod into the barrel. When it is touching the top of the breech

plug it should sit approximately 3/4” below the muzzle. (Note: The top of

the Ramrod should be just underneath the PAS system ends and the barrel

riﬂing starts)

Note: You should hear a metallic sound as the jag makes contact with the

breech plug.

If the ramrod is not 3/4” below the muzzle and you do not hear the metallic sound

then the barrel may be either obstructed or loaded. To remove the obstruction,

remove the breech plug. Do not attempt to clear the barrel by ﬁring. Before

loading anything into the barrel, clean all oil and grease from inside the barrel. We

recommend using Traditions cleaning products to enhance your accuracy and ease

shooting & cleaning.

TO CLEAR THE IGNITION CHANNEL FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

Point the riﬂe down towards a safe area on the

ground and load a primer into nipple area of the

breech plug. Fire one or two primers to blow out

any oil or residue from the ﬁre channel. Point the

muzzle at a leaf or blade of grass to see if it moves.

If it moves, you have a clear channel. If not, ﬁre

additional primers or check the breech plug for

obstructions. Another way to see if you have a clear

ﬁre channel is to screw a loading/cleaning jag on

your ramrod and place a dry patch on the muzzle of your riﬂe Push the patch

down to the breech plug face and leave ramrod & patch in bore. Point riﬂe in a

safe direction, place primer in nipple area of the breech plug and ﬁre two primers.

Remove ramrod from the bore and inspect patch. Patch should have a complete

circular burn in middle. This tells you that you have a clear ﬁre channel. Stand the

butt of the riﬂe on the ground so that the muzzle is pointed up and away from you

and others. Never work with your face or any part of your body over the muzzle,

even when the gun is unloaded. Be sure that the ﬁrearm is unprimed and the

safeties are engaged. Your riﬂe is now ready to be loaded.

LOADING THE POWDER FOR MUZZLELOADING RIFLES:

Use only Black Powder, Pyrodex

loose or pelletized powder or Triple 7

loose or

pelletized powder. Follow the Powder Manufacturer’s Instructions when handling

any type of powder. Make sure to reduce your charge by 15% when using Triple

loose powder.

When loading loose powder:

a. Fill your Traditions ﬂask with powder.

b. Adjust your Traditions powder measure

to the desired charge. See Section XVIII.

c. Pour powder from your Traditions ﬂask into

the powder measure. Pour powder from the

powder measure down the barrel.

WARNING!

Never load powder into a gun directly from a can, powder horn or ﬂask. Always

use a separate calibrated powder measuring device. A remaining spark or ember in

the barrel may cause injury or death to you, bystanders and destroy the ﬁrearm.

d. Tap the side of the barrel to settle the powder

into the breech area.

When loading pelletized powder (Pellets):

a. Drop the desired amount of pellets into the

barrel with the igniter side down.

Using a pipe cleaner to handle the pellets

makes it easier to load and keeps oil from

your hands off the pellet.
