While returning my thanks to friend 

 MacCarrick for his interesting articles on 

 military rifles, I still think the single action 

 Remington, for quick firing, ahead of any 

 single action rifle and almost as good as a 

 repeater. If the government had a lot of 

 good guns on hand and wanted to alter 

 them to breech loaders, then, and then only, 

 the Springfield is a good thing. Nothing 

 will satisfy me, however, but the best, for 

 our army, and the fact that the government 

 ment is now exchanging the Krag for a 

 clip action gun settles the matter. The 

 reason for choosing a 38 caliber for an 

 all around rifle is that a small ball with a 

 light charge of powder can be used for 

 ducks and other small game, and the large 

 cartridge for bear, etc. Though our fore- 

 fathers killed deer and bears with a single 

 shot, small bore, I know of one instance in 

 which a common black bear charged the 

 hunter after being shot through the body, 

 from shoulder to flank. It was shot 3 times 

 more, the last bullet tearing off" the top 

 of the skull at short range before the 

 charge ended. A heavy 45 rifle was used. 

 The Savage people have, besides a good 

 gun, an immense advantage in their shells. 

 The small, coated bullet with small charge 

 of smokeless is great on ducks, geese and 

 other small game. To shoot well with a 

 rifle requires much practice. If you buy 

 shells ready loaded, their cost will soon 

 stop the practicing. Why can not smoke- 

 less shells be made sloping instead of bot- 

 tle necked? It would be an advantage in 

 resizing. 



For some time past I have made it a rule 

 to buy sporting goods only from people ad- 

 vertising in Recreation. If we all do that 

 it may aid our favorite magazine in a pe- 

 cuniary way.
