WINCHESTER MUZZLELOADING
This owner’s manual is intended to familiarize you with
the basic understanding of muzzleloading and your new
Winchester muzzleloader. It is important to take the time
to read and understand the information contained in this
manual.
CAUTION! DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LOAD OR
FIRE YOUR MUZZLELOADER UNTIL YOU HAVE
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INFORMATION
DESCRIBED HEREIN.
WARNING! NEVER USE MODERN SMOKELESS
POWDER IN A MUZZLELOADER. THE USE OF
ANY AMOUNT OF SMOKELESS POWDER IN A
MUZZLELOADER WILL CREATE DANGEROUSLY
HIGH PRESSURES UPON IGNITION AND MAY
RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH TO THE SHOOTER

INTRODUCTION TO SAFETY
TEN COMMANDMENTS OF FIREARM SAFETY
1. Keep the gun’s muzzle pointed in a safe direction
and never pull it towards you by the muzzle.
2. Be sure of your target and what is beyond.
3. Never rely on a gun’s mechanical “safety.”
4. Gun should be kept unloaded until ready to use.
5. Always wear eye and ear protection.
6. The barrel should be clear of all obstructions before
shooting.
7. Handle every gun as if it is loaded.
8. Keep guns and ammo separate and in locked
storage.
9. Avoid alcohol and drugs before and during use of a
firearm.
10. Do not alter or modify your firearm. Have your
firearm regularly checked by a competent gunsmith
to ensure all parts are working properly.
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS UNIQUE TO
MUZZLELOADERS
1. Never smoke when shooting or handling a
muzzleloader. Ashes or loose sparks could ignite
powder.
2. Never pour powder into a muzzleloader directly
from a flask, horn, or any large volume, enclosed
container. Hot embers in the barrel could cause
container to explode.
3
3. Always keep powder and percussion caps well away
from shooting area. Sparks from shooting could
cause accidental ignition of these devices.
4. Use only Blackpowder, Pyrodex or Pyrodex pellets,
Clean shot or Clean Shot Powder Pelletized or other
approved blackpowder substitute in your Winchester
muzzleloader.
(Never use modern smokeless
powder in a muzzleloader.)
5. Always check to ensure that your muzzleloader is in
proper working condition before using. Thoroughly
check barrel for obstructions, and inspect the bolt
and safety for proper function.
6. Never prime the muzzleloader until you are ready to
fire. Primer cap should always be removed when
walking, climbing trees or fences, transferring the
gun from one person to another, leaving the gun
unattended, etc.
7. Never lean or rest a loaded muzzleloader against a
tree, wall, vehicle or other surface. Any fall of a
loaded gun may cause accidental discharge.
8. Never transport a loaded muzzleloader in any type
of vehicle. A muzzleloader is considered loaded
until powder, bullet, and primer cap have been
removed.
9. Never exchange a loaded muzzleloader with another
person. Only the person who loaded the
muzzleloader should fire it. This practice will help
prevent overloading or doubleloading a charge.
10. Never store a loaded muzzleloader. Muzzleloaders

should be unloaded and properly cleaned prior to
storage.
Never load a muzzleloader until first verifying that it
is unloaded.
Never allow the bolt of a muzzleloader to rest
against the primer cap. Any impact to the bolt could
cause accidental discharge.
Never rely on a mechanical safety. Muzzleloaders
should be handled as if ready to fire, regardless of
the safety system employed.
Always use proper cleaning procedures. Firing
improperly maintained muzzleloaders may lead to
unsafe barrel pressures resulting in severe injury or
death.
Always make sure that the projectile is firmly seated
against the powder charge. “Short starting” of the
4
projectile could cause the gun to explode.
16. Always keep the muzzle of the gun pointed in a safe
direction while loading. Never lean over or place
any part of the body over the muzzle.

ASSEMBLY FROM THE RECEIVER
Note:
Verify that gun is unloaded before beginning this
procedure by placing the ramrod down the barrel until it
touches the breech plug. If gun is unloaded, the end of
the ramrod should be flush with the crown of the muzzle.
If rod extends beyond the crown of the muzzle, assume
the rifle is loaded and that it should be unloaded before
proceeding.
