CAPTAIN BOGAKDU8 ON TIN-COATED SHOT. 



EDITOR FOREST AND Stream: New YORK, Jan. 18, 1ST9. 



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

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

 6,000 ball match, Jan. 8 and 9, with it. In that match I used wo sets of double barrels, one of 10 and thy 

 other 12-bore, and each single barrel was discharged 1,500 times without being once cleaned. The inne' 

 surface of the barrels is bright and free from Borxtches, although In shooting I used them nntil the": 

 became so hot that they would not. bear handling. I cannot Imagine any case of ordinary nee which coul a 

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

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

THE CHAMPION POWDER 



OF THE WORLD. 



NO SM0KE-N0 DIET-LESS RECOIL 



8TROWO AJW33 SAFE. 



STJPEKIOR IN EVEEY RESPECT TO BLACK POWDER 



6,013 SHOTS WITHOUT WIPING IN A SHOT-GUN. 



Captain Bogardus' great feat of breaking 6,c)O0 glass halls has proved that the powder Is all that is 

 claimed for It. The barrel", without being wiped, were as clean at the end of the match as after ihe 

 flrat shot. The fact of the tiring of so n any shots in succession, and that, the Captain has uted about 

 200 pounds of the same powder dm ing Uie last year in one gun, shows, without a doubt, lhat the 

 powder is EFFICIENT, UN1FOKM and SAFE. 



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

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

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

 gold medals, two silver medals, two revolve! s, and ionr other prizes In using the DITTMAE RIFLE 

 POWDER. 



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

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

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