MOUNTING A SCOPE
BEFORE MOUNTING A SCOPE, SIGHT OR OTHER ACCESSORIES TO
YOUR RIFLE, ALWAYS OPEN THE ACTION, MAKE CERTAIN YOUR
RIFLE IS COMPLETELY UNLOADED AND LOWER THE HAMMER TO
THE DROPPED POSITION. KEEP THE MUZZLE POINTED IN A SAFE
DIRECTION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS COULD RESULT
IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
The receiver of the BL-22 is designed to accept
3
⁄8" groove or tip-off
type scope mounts and receiver sights. These mounts are available for
¾" or 1" scopes. See your Browning dealer to purchase the scope
mount bases and rings designed for the BL-22.
ALWAYS USE THE CORRECT BASES FOR THIS RIFLE. DAMAGE COULD
OCCUR TO THE RIFLE.
1 Place your rifle in a gun vise or on a table or other safe/secure
location with the top of the receiver upward. Protect the rifle’s
finish with rags or other padding.
2 Mount your scope rings and scope as outlined in the instructions
supplied with your scope rings and/or scope. Always make sure
you have the proper eye relief.
TRIGGER ADJUSTMENT
The BL-22 trigger is a two-stage design for added safety. The trigger
mechanism is pre-set at the factory to provide a short, crisp pull.
NO ATTEMPT SHOULD EVER BE MADE TO ALTER THE TRIGGER PULL
BY ANYONE OTHER THAN A RECOMMENDED BROWNING FIREARMS
SERVICE CENTER OR BROWNING’S SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN ARNOLD,
MISSOURI. ANY ATTEMPT TO TAMPER WITH THE TRIGGER MAY DAMAGE
IT BEYOND REPAIR.
