CAPTAIN BOGARDUS ON TIN-COATED SHOT. 



EMTOB Fokbst and Strkam : New YOKE, Jan. 13, 18T9. 



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

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

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

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

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

 became so hot that they would not bear handling. I cannot imagine any case ct ordinary use which could 

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

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

THE CHAMPION POWDER 



OF THE WORLD. 



NO SMOKE-NO DIRT-LESS RECOIL 



STBOSO AKD SAFE 



SUPERIOR IN EVERY RESPECT TO BLACK POWDER 



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



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

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

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

 200 pounds of the same powder during the last year In one gun, shows, without a dcubt, that the 

 powder Is EFFICIENT, UNIFORM and SAFE. 



The rifle powder iB also without a rival. The standing challenge to test this powder egainBt any 

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

 powder, aB, lor instance, Mr. E. B. Souther, of the Massachusetts Rifle Association, wen 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 ns to prcduce always a unlfoim, and in every way reliable, article.
