TK2000 TK2000LOADING 
MUZZLELOADING SHOTGUN 
The loading instructions for the TK2000 are as follows: 
1. Run a patch down the bore on the cleaning jag, scrubbing your way to the bottom of the barrel. Leave 
the patch and rod at the bottom, pointing the muzzle in a safe direction, and fire 2-3 caps into the patch to ensure 
that the breech plug will be oil free. Pull the patch and jag out of the barrel. 
2. With muzzle pointed in a safe direction and both safeties engaged, measure out either FFg black powder or equivalent 
and pour into barrel (120 grains maximum). Do not use pelletized powder. 
3. 
Push an empty shot wad down the bore with the smaller end of the ramrod, seating the wad properly on the powder 3. 
charge. Fill a spare shot wad ( of the same size ) full with your choice of shot size, and carefully pour shot from the 
spare wad down the bore. Maximum of 2 1/2 oz. of shot. 
4. Push an over-shot wad down the bore with the jag end of the ramrod. Do not be concerned if the over-shot wad 
starts in sideways, as it will straighten itself out on the way down. Make sure the wad is firmly seated on the shot. 
5. Cap the gun with the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and both safeties on, then it is ready to be shot.
