60 When choosing a storage location, an uninhabited and isolated place should be chosen, if possible.
Good storage locations for munitions will be dry, easy to aerate and provided with a floor. Storing
munitions on rock or dirt will damage the packaging. If the packaging becomes wet and
impossible to transport in cartons, find a dry floor and ensure that there is sufficient aeration in the
storage area.
Stacking cartons more than 5 cartons high is prohibited. Between different stacks as well as the
between the walls of the storage facility and the stacks the spacing should be such to ensure good
aeration of the cartons.

(Fig. 34-37)
61 Handling cartridges instead of live ball or blank ammunition should be used to practice all

positions, on the march and in the dark.
The soldier need not be concerned about loading details that are not covered in the following
sections:

-Grasp the weapon in the left hand next to the trigger guard (toward the center of gravity),
-Right thumb placed on the left side of the cocking ring, the other fingers on the bolt handle on the
cam follower,
-Open the bolt by pushing with the right thumb ,
-Grasp the charger in the right hand and place it in the loading slot (fig. 34),
-Insert the cartridges in two movements (fig. 35), press the cartridges downward with the base of
the thumb, and then press the cartridges firmly down to the bottom, into the magazine with the tip
of the thumb,

To load standing, place the left foot slightly forward and angle the rifle slightly upward while
resting it on the ammo pouch.
The load command is as follows: “Load” (Chargez)
63 Reloading: After each shot the shooter reloads of his own accord without order:

quickly to the rear.
-Close the bolt again with one hard movement forward.
-Hold the rifle near the center of gravity; place index finger inside the trigger guard,

charger as follows:
-Lower the weapon
-Place the charger into the loading slot,
-Insert the cartridges per section 62.
-Discard the empty charger,
-Close the bolt per section 62,
