RANGE AND GALLERY. 



A NEW TARGET.— Referring to the new target recently proposed 

 by Mr. Farrow, I am surprised that the matter has not been discussed 

 Iq your columns by many who are well quaUfled to present intelligent 

 views on the subject. There are too many targets in use. The marks- 

 man cannot keep the run of them. It is not a sign of Ignorance in 

 any one to be unable to give the several dimensions of the half dozen 

 targets in use at the present time. It is a crying evil which should be 

 remedied at once. The Farrow target is a practical one and I think 

 will meet the requirements of nearly all classes of target shooters. 

 The German sharpshooters will probably still use their ring target 

 for off-hand shooting, and the heavy telescopic hair trigger rest 

 shooter will prefer string measure, but other classes of marksmen 

 will fiud in the new target all they require for practice at 200yds. 

 Several excellent plans for targets have been proposed, and for' the 

 regularity of the increase in the width of the divisions Irom the center 

 outward reflect great credit on their designers. The main objection 

 I would offer to their adoption would be that they do not preserve 

 the divisions of tne third class Creedmoor target, and the measure- 

 ments of some are in .such small fractions of an inch that it would re- 

 quire ah expert to draw the circles. This should not be the case as 

 many shooters make their own targets, and if it be desh-ed to adopt 

 a target that will come into general use. such target must be so 

 simpie In its several dimensions that each and every shooter can 

 manufacture his own. It ij important that we avoid complicated 

 fi-actions in the measui-ement of the circles of the 200yds. target, as 

 many will want to reduce it to half size for practice at 10()yds.— E. A, 

 L. (Norristown. Pa , Dec. 20). 



BOSTON, Dec. 35.— Many smaU-bore riflemen, as well as a strong 

 delegation of military rifle shooters, faced the targets at Walnut Hill 

 to-day. The conditions were rather trying, a fickle 12 o'clock wind 

 disturbing elevations and windage, and causing high scores to be few 

 ana far between. The directors of the association announce that 

 the Thursday shoots wiU be discontinued alter Jan. 1. The scores:

SARATOGA, Dec. 24.— The regular shoot at the Glen Mitchell 

 Range by members of the Saratoga Rifle Club took place to-day. The 

 weather conditions were at first tantalizing. The light was so bright 

 and dazzling that the bullseye, when looked at over the rifles, would 

 bUnk, wink and dance about as if bewitched, the wind seemed deter- 

 mined to be in accord, as it blew from all points of the compass, but 

 from no point sufficiently long for dependence on it. Later iri the 

 day everything changed. As the sun lowered in the west the light 

 became good and the wind settled down to a steady point and a half 

 breeze from the northwest. Then good scores began to make their 

 appearance. Massachusetts target, 200yds., off-hand. The following 

 is the record: 



W B Gage 11 11 11 11 11 U 11 11 11 11—111

MANCHESTER, N. H.. Dec. 25.— The strong, fluctuating wind made 

 the making of high scores by the club men to-day a difficult matter, 

 but the sport afforded was'none the less attractive because of this.

 were :

A GRATEFUL PIKE.— R. W. Pike is a Chicago lawyer, who signs 

 "Dane" to.his articles on rifle ball trajectories. The other day Mr. 

 Pike had occasion to use for his own advantage some of the data de- 

 termined by the Forest ano Stream's rifle trajectory tests, and he 

 gracefully acknowledged his obligation by crediting the figures to 

 "a report of the late rifle trajectory tests at Creedmoor, which ap- 

 pears in a New York canoe club organ." The compUments of the 

 season to Mr. Pike, and mora breadth to hj.s caudal fin. In 1880 may 

 many gudgeons swim into bis lair.

TORONTO, Dec. 22.— A pigeon shooting match between N. Rodgers 

 and J. Tyng came off at John Oulcott's, Eglinton, this afternoon. 

 The weather was fine and helped to bring out a large number of 

 -sportsmen. The birds were all flyers. The match was shot under 

 Toronto Gun Club rules, 25 birds each, 26 yards rise. As will be seen 

 from the following score, a very close contest was witnessed: 



Rodgers 0111111111110000100110111—17 



Tyng 11111 1 101 1 10000011 1 101101— 17 



As both had killed 17 birds it was necessary that they should have 

 another trial. The.y went back three yards from the original posi- 

 tion and shot at five birds each, 29 yards' rise. The following was 

 the lesult: 



Rodgers 11001—3 



Tyng lUOll— 3 



In order to decide the tie they went back three yards further, shoot- 

 ing at .32 yards' rise. Tyng killed the two birds sent up, while Rod- 

 gers missed. The match was thus given to T.yng.
