Save the tow for future use. If you have no tow, a dry, clean cloth patch will have to do. Now insert a small bird's feather through the touch hole and part-way across the breech plug face. The feather is inserted quill-end first. This creates an open channel to the interior of the main charge.
Road kill is okay, or find a friend with a cat.
The rifle's heel will be toward your back. Grasp the forestock under your left arm between the elbow and armpit. Depending on your height, the muzzle will be somewhere from your chin to your chest and the ramrod toward your shoulder. It's very safe and the rifle is quite secure for the loading procedure. You'll also note that by grasping the forestock with your left upper arm, both hands are free to load the rifle.
