CAUTION: Do not leave the gun cocked for a long time. Otherwise the spring may be
subject to fatigue, which decreases the performance of the gun.
Loading the gun:
Load the gun with only one pellet. (Fig. 8)
Shooting:
• Bring the barrel to its fully closed position. (Fig. 9)
• Be sure that the barrel is closed completely and you hear a click
upon closing the barrel.
• Sight in*, disengage safety and get ready for shooting. (Fig. 10)
(*) The gun is correctly aimed when the front sight blade is
positioned exactly in the notch of the rear sight. The sight picture
should look like (Fig. 11)

Section V. Ammunition
Proper use of ammunition
There is, available, a variety of pellet types of varying weights that can be loaded in your air gun;
Dome head Pointed head Flat head
The choice of pellet type and weight is very dependent on the intended purpose of the shoot. So, it is recommended
to use:
• Flat head pellets for close range shooting and for extreme accuracy.
• Dome head pellets for greater impact on the target.
• Pointed pellets for considerable expansion.
• Heavy weight pellets, especially heavy weight dome head pellets, for maximum penetration & expansion at the
target.
Pellet weight and external shape combination plays a very important role on the muzzle velocity and ballistic
performance, but weight has the dominant role. Lighter pellets provide higher velocities, usually produce less recoil
and give a flatter trajectory path to the target-leads to less guesswork. On the other hand, heavy pellets are more
accurate and retain more energy downrange so giving a greater penetration and expansion on the target.
Safety Measures for Ammunition
• Pellet quality is highly important in order to have effective results. So, use only high quality factory-manufactured
pellets.
• Never reuse pellets.
• Do not touch face or mouth after handling pellets. Wash hands after handling pellets.
• Do not oil pellets nor use dirty, corroded, bent, damaged or wet pellets.
• USE ONLY PELLETS OF THE CALIBRE, WHICH YOUR AIRGUN IS CHAMBERED.
• Always load your gun with only one pellet and be sure to load the pellet with the skirt end toward you.
