CAPTAIN BOCAKDUS ON TIN-COATED SHOT. 



Editor Forest and Stream: New York, Jan. 33. 1878. 



Having been asked by many of vonr readers as to the merits of TIN-COATED SOFT SHOT, I deBire 

 to say that I consider it the best shot I have ever used. I have given it a very severe test, having shot m 

 6,000 ball match, Jau. 8 and 9 wilh it. In that match I used wo sets of double barrels, one of 10 and th 

 other 12-bore, and eai-h single barrel wa« discharged 1.500 times without befog once cleaned. The inne 

 surface of the barrels is bright and free from scratches, although In shooting I used them until the 

 became so hot that they would not bear handling. I cannot imagine any ease of ordinary use which con 

 so severely test the cleanliness and perfection of the tio-coating and its freedom from injury by any he 

 which conld ever result from continuous discharges of the gun. A. H. BOGARDUS.

THE CHAMPION POWDER 



OF THE WORLD. 



NO SMOKE-NO DIRT-LESS RECOIL 



8TBORO ANIZ SAFE. 



SUPEKIOK IN EVERY BESJfECT TO BLACK POWDER 



6,OJ3 SHOTS WITHOUT WIPING IN A SHOT-GUN. 



Captain Bogardns' great feat of breaking 6,000 glass balls has proved that the powder Is all that la 

 claimed for it. The barrel*, without being wiped, were as clean at the end of the match as after the 

 first shot. The fact of the firing of so many shots in succession, and that the Captain has used about 

 300 pouBds of the same powder during the last year In one gun, shows, without a doubt, that the 

 powder is EFFICIENT, UNIFORM and SAFE. 



The rlfie powder is also without a rival. The standing challenge to test this powder against any 

 other has never been accepted. Many riflemen throughout the country have been successful with the 

 powder, as, for instance, Mr. E. B. Souther, of the Massachusetts Rifle Association, won last year two 

 gold medals, two Bllver medals, two revolvers, and lour other prizes in using the D1TTMAR RIFLE 

 POWDER. 



Greater facilities and greater demand have enabled us to reduce the price of the powder consider- 

 ably, and the fact that the Government Armory at Springfield is making now all kinds of testing 

 machinery for ub will enable us to produce always a uniform, and in every way reliable, article.
