2. Adjust your Traditions™
powder measure to the
desired correct charge for the
type of powder you are using
based on the powder
manufacturer’s
recommendations.

3. Pour powder from your
Traditions™ flask into the
desired powder charge. 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 serious injury and/or death to you or bystanders and
damage to property.


4. Tap the side of the barrel to help settle the powder into the breech
area.


When loading pelletized powder (Pellets):


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.
