You should be aware that you are about to build a
muzzleloader which will be fully shootable. For this
reason it must be handled with the same precautions
and respect due any firearm. Before loading or shoot-
ing this gun, read and understand and always be will-

as outlined in the enclosed Warranty and Shooting
Instructions Booklet. If this booklet is not with your

handy person to build a safe, serviceable and
shootable muzzleloader. Greater skills and patience
will be rewarded with a truly fine rifle reminiscent of
the muzzleloading era.
Before beginning the actual assembly of the parts,
read these instructions while at the same time take
inventory of each part and develop an understanding
where each part goes and how they relate to each
other.
Next, begin initial assembly. Progressively improve
the fit of the various parts as each part is fitted to
another. Realize that after all parts have been installed

at that time, a more precise final fitting of all the parts
collectively will enable you to more precisely mate
them together. Do not attempt to totally fit and finish
each part as you install it on your gun. You will real-
ize a finer result if you repeatedly and progressively
blend the parts together. This will improve the final
wood to metal fit and finish. Only after you have com-
pleted the final assembly, should you then file, sand,
stain and color the parts of the gun.

Fitting: All metal parts should be placed into their
respective cut-outs of the Stock and fit snugly.

Wood Screws: To facilitate assembly and to avoid
cracking the Stock, mark and drill small pilot holes
into wood before inserting Wood Screws.

Metal Screws: Turn Screws into and out of their
threaded holes several times to burnish the threads
to insure smooth fit.
