W. W- GREENER'S CHOKE-BORE ' 

 GUNS have heen proved by overwhelming evidence ' 

 to be vastly supen r to evlindes hores for all Uinda 

 of shootintt, from snipe to duck. (See the letters 

 from Sportsmen in the Loudon Field, dating from 

 November, 1STG, to March, 1877.) Dec. 9 a letter ap- 

 pears from F. Milhauk, Esq., M. P., the finest gam? \ 

 shot in Europe. This "eutleman has killed on his 

 own moor 700 grouse in one day. He says: 



" We went out partridge nhootini-,' the e- ,e |3 

 November. Birds are wild as hawks at tliis season 

 of the year. Accompanying me were tv.- 

 both first-rate shots. All three of us had equal 

 chances throughout the day. At the end of it one of J 

 my friends had seven brace, the otber bie lie t 



the choke had 16K brace. / advisedly say the cltolee, 1 

 for lam convinced that the gun alone wa 

 of mv overtopping my friends hy so large a number.] 

 I meaanred that day three nn 

 and G2 yards, and I have decide,! 

 the choke-bore for the future, for I ,- n | |< 

 choke-bonug to be one of the greatest improvementB 

 mode on the sporting gun in modern tin 



Tlie Cliaempioii TjcipU-tVedse Fas» Gun 

 has made the best Hbooting at game ever known. It 

 ■will stand 10 drachms of powder in the paper shell, 

 and can be obtained in the States at from $150 to $250.
