WARNING

At this stage in the unloading process, your rifle still has a live round in the chamber which may be fired even though the box magazine has been removed. Never assume your rifle cannot fire simply because the box magazine has been removed.

4. Lift the bolt handle and pull the bolt fully to the rear to remove the cartridge from the chamber.

5.With the bolt open (fully to the rear), look into the chamber and magazine well to make sure all cartridges have been removed from the rifle.

6.Empty the cartridges from the box magazine in a reverse manner from the loading instructions. You may store the empty magazine separately or reinsert it into the rifle.

7.With the bolt still open, visually recheck the chamber and magazine well to make sure the rifle is comp- letely unloaded.
