Rifle and Crap Shooting, 
LIGHT IN RIFLE SHOOTING. 
Editor Forest and Strean.- 
An incident occurred at a target shoot at Oak Island Grove Range, 
Revere Beach, July 9 last, which I deem worthy of mention, as from 
inquiry among riflemen I haye been unable to learn that any have 
experienced anything approaching a similar condition of things, 
The match began well, three bullseyes being made on the first round 
(eight marksmen were shooting on the target), and the second round 
had begun. The second shot on this round was challenged and, atter 
examination, pronounced a bullseye, This challenge consumed a 
little time, and when shooting was resumed there was an unaccount- 
able wildness in the shots, they all going toward the top of the tar- 
get. Good marksmen suprised themselyes with 3s and 2s, and a few 
shot entirely over the top of the target. Some sights were lowered 
four points without getting ont of the 3 ring, aud most miserable 
scores were made allround, Just about the close of thematch the 
conditions changed again, and one gentleman who had dropped his 
sight Four points and got “high 2” still further Surprised himself with 
a “low 2;” and another, who had dropped his sight ten points. being 
adyised to adjust it to its usual position, did so and got a close 4. 
Now, after thinking this thing over pretty thoroughly, and studying 
the condition of things as well as I have been able, I conclude all was 
owing to changing light from passing clouds. The day was warm and 
muggy; the air cay. withthe appearance of an approaching shower, 
and dark clouds and light clouds chased each other oyerhead, which, 
to my mind, produced a mirage of the bullseye to the extent of from 
two to four feet, and the phantom we fired at was really that much 
above the object we were trying to hit. This will, perhaps, appear 
preposterous to those who have never had similar experience; but ib 
is a fact, nevertheless, and I write this hoping some one may furnish 
aparallel, Tous whodid experience it, the language of Pinafore, 
that “things are seldom what they seem,”’ was forcible.

Wil some of your rifle correspondents explain why a Remington- 
Hepburn rifle, .40-45-265, I have, that carries the regular size bullet up 
to the center at 100yds., drops it 8 to 10in. when bullet is reduced by 
one-quarter of length and powder is increased 10 grains? By the way, 
the Remington moulds, marked 265 grains, make a bullet weighing 
320.—Wu. L. CouLTER. 
BOSTON, July 26.—There was # very light attendance ab Walnut 
Hill this morning, but in the afternoon the number was increased by 
a delegation of gunners from the office of Rockwell & Churchill, who 
had lots of fun trying to find the bullseye, which dodged them suc- 
cessfully. The weather conditions were fineand some good shots 
made. The atsociation will send at least one team to the intended 
shoot at Oak Island next month, and to prepare for it a man target 
and a ring target will be opened at Walnut Hill Saturday next. The 
best scores were as follows:

MANCHESTER, N. H., July 25—A: more favorable day for rifie 
shooting than to-day was neyer enjoyed by the members of the Man- 
chester Rifle Association. The sun was clouded in. but not to Such 
an extent but there was a good light upon the targets, and there was 
not sufficient breeze to move the flags, which hunz limp about the 
staffs. The interest of the meeting centered in the team telegraphic 
match between a team selected from the local organization and the 
Lawrence Rifle Club, and when the men commenced. to shoot their 
team cards every shot was closely watched, The footing of 271 for 
the team was a surprise to all present, as the most sanguine had not 
counted upon so good a score, and the feeling that defeat was almost 
certain which was manifest before the shoot, rave way to one of con- 
fidence that the Lawrence boys had been outshot. One of the strong- 
est members of the club, Mr. H. G, Bixby, who has hitherto shot mn 
6 team matches, was not present, and this had much to do with 
the local team BOCAS defeat. c 
The record of the shooting in the various events is giyen herewith. 
A large number of cards in matches B and O were withdrawn uncom- 
pleted. All of the shooting was done upon paper targets.

During the first half of the match the Lawrence Club shot an aver- 
age total of 268 shots, which, if held up in the last half, would have 
brought them within three of the home team. One of their mostreli- 
able men broke the hammer of his rifle on the third round and had to 
finish with a strange une which was a serious disadyantage to him 
and, his club. Then the Lawrence team had to contend with a strong 
and constantly fluctuating wind during the last of the match. Mr. J. 
H, Shepard, the secretary of the Lawrence Club, writes that the score 
made by the Manchester Club is a magnificent one. and that his elub 
have the consolation of knowing that they were not beaten by scrubs. 
At the next match he hopes to make the margin less, and doubtless 
will, as bhe Manchester Club cannot hope to do as well every time, 
and their opponents of yesterday are sure to do better. Mr, Shepard 
proposes that the two clubs meet in a series of matches, one to be shot 
in Lawrence, one in this city, and one on neuiral ground, The Man- 
chester Club will doubtless accept this proposition. 
THE KOLAPORE CUP.—The Canadian team won the Rajah of 
Kolapore’s Cup at Wimbledon on the 23d, with a score of 665 against 
660 for the English, and 576 for the Indian teams. The competition 
for the cup was for teams of eight selected from efficient volunteers 
of the mother country, and from the militia or efficient yolunteers 
of any British colony or dependency. Since the institution of this 
cup in 1871, Canada has been successful in four conipetitions,

THE TRAP. 
THE NEW YORK TOURNAMENT. 
Editor Forest and Stream: . - 
Tn answer to many inquiries, permit me, through you columus, to 
add the following to the programme of the intersiate tournament, 
New Yorkecity, Aug. 14, 15 and 16, already announced in your col- 
nmns, viz.: : 
First—No purses guaranteed; all purses will be proraia. (Judgisg 
by our Chicago tournament, and the great interest taken in this tour- 
nament, we think the purses have been underrated.) 
Second—Shoots Nos. 5 and 8 have been changed to use of both har- 
rels, similar to shoot No. 2. f : 
Third—i0-bore guns shall be handicapped one yard. Shooters will 
be requested to give particulars of guns and ammunition, and cards 
for that purpose will be given to shooters on the ground.
