 TRIAL OP SCOTT& GREENER'S NE W SYSTEM 

 OF BORING, BY THE EDITOR OF 

 "THE FIELD," LONDON. 



(See The Field, January 30th, 1875.) 

 "From a comparison of the two tables it will be 

 seen that with Walker's shot, Messrs. Scott guns 

 showed a marked superiority over Mr. Greener's, 

 both in average and in the highest score made. In- 

 deed, with the left barrel, in his third shot, Mr. Scott 

 got a selected group pattern of 239 and a penetration 

 of 37, equalling the highpst pattern made by Mr 

 Greener, and exceeding the penetration of that par- 

 ticular shot by eight sheets."

 prize, a silver cup, value 40 guineas— elass 2 for 12 

 bores; also winner in class 1 for 8 and 10 bores, and 

 class 4 for 20 bores . He has won in all the classes for 

 improved boring, which is upon a different plan to any 

 other maker, and is far superior in the three most es- 

 sential points, viz., PATTERN, PENETRATION, 

 and REGULARITY OF SHOOTING

Gun and Rifle Manufacturers,* 



Call the attention of the Sportsmen of America to the- 

 extrerae SIMPLICITY, STRENTH and DURABIL- 

 ITY of their New Patent "SIMPLEX" Breech loader 

 and INDEPENDENT EXTRACTOR. 



The parts in this new action are so few Jonly two,)t 

 its mechanical soundness so thorough, and the 

 strength and simplicity of the action so great, thatr 

 W. & P. feel sure it will supercede all the complicated 

 and manifold grips now in use, its one powerful grip 

 being far stronger than any double, treble or quadruple 

 grip now used. In this new action LEVER and GRIP 

 ARE ONE SOLID PIECE OF STEEL and the AN- 

 GLE of the BODY is left in its ENTIRE STRENGTH. 



Drawings of action and extractor will be sent on ap- 

 plication, and orders may be forwarded thr5ugh any 

 of the best houses in the States for execution in the 

 Spring.

SHOWN by trials at Wimbledon by Editor 

 of the Field to possess the GREATEST PENE- 

 TRATION and therefore LONGEST RANGE— thus: 

 Circle, 30 inches; 300 pellets; average, 19i; penetra- 

 tion, 37. The Editor's trial of Greener guns with 340 

 pellets of same shot and same charge of powder, gave 

 180,and penetration 30, although there were 40 more pel- 

 lets in each charge. Should any controversy arise as 

 to the durability of ^these new systems, we herewith 

 warn all beforehand that our system is our own inven- 

 tion (though founded on the American idea) and is DU- 

 RABLE, a fact remarked on 'oy the Field, that the

 erenced permitted to the owners . Send for Illustrated;
