PURE TIN-COATED & BURNISHED 

 DROP AND BUCK SHOT. 



AMERICAN STANDARD --EAGLE BRAND. 



CAPTAIN BOGAI1DIJS OUT TIN-COATED SHOT. 



Editor Foebst and Stream : New York, 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 tne best thot I have evfr used. I have given it a very severe test, havvng shot my 

 6,000 ball match, Jan. 8 and 9, with it. In that match I used :ifo sets or double barrels, one of 16 and the 

 other 12-bore, and each single barrel was dlfchnvrvd I. onu ntnen n hhonr. being once cleaned. The Inner 

 surface of the barrels is bright and free from scrttches, although in shooting I used them until the? 

 became so hot that they would not beer handling. I cannot Imagine any esse of ordinary use which could 

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

 which could ever result from contiguous discharges of the gun. A. H. BOQARDUS.

IDittxxie&x* Powder 



THE CHAMPION POWDER 



OF THE WORLD. 



NO SMOKE-NO DIET-LESS RECOIL 



STROHQ AJStD SAFE 



SUPEKIOR 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 is all that Is 

 claimed for it. The barrels, 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 Bhots in succession, and that the Captain has used about 

 200 pounds of the same powder during the last year in one gnn, shows, without a doubt, that the 

 powder Is EFFICIENT, UN1FOBM and SAFE. ' 



The rifle powder Is also without a rival. The standing challenge to test this powder agalnBt 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 Kifle Association, wen last year two 

 gold medals, two silver medals, two revolvers, and lonr othtr prizes In using the D1TTMAK KIFLE 

 POWDER. 



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

 ably, and the fact that the Governmmt Armory at Springfield Is making now all Rinds of testing 

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