The Parker Gun. 

 BRO 



At the Second International Clay-Pigeon Tournament, held at New Orleans, La., Feb. 11 

 to 16. 188.5, the First Prize and Diamond Badge in the. Individual Championship Match, o^n 

 to all the world, was won by B. Tiepel with a Parker gun. Among the contestants shooting 

 other guns were such champions as CaiTer, Bogardus, Cody, Stubbs, Erb, and others. Dur- 

 ing the entire tournament more prizes were won with Parker guns, in proportion to the 

 number used, than with any other gun. 



Hundreds of Frizes. 



have been won with AMERICAN WOOD 

 POWDER, loaded in the following manner. 

 No. 1 rciiresents the exact proportion ol a Wood-Powder 



Shell proijcrly wiidded before the wads have been rammed 

 down. I^oiiuitlev wlint kind of wads are used, tho same 

 should bo tough au<l hard, and the same tUicknenit of wad- 

 diiitr .should bo used as shown in these Cuts. 



In ni.'uiy Parker, Colt and other guns, wads of one or two 

 ei/i 1 iiger than bore of shell must be used, as the inner 

 diameter of tho barrels of such guns is from one-half to 

 two calibre larger than that of paper shells, preventing the 

 ucc 1 '-■^tU V confinement and causing hall of the charge being 

 th.rowii out unbnrnt. This is the secret of failures to get 

 tho desired penetration with AMERICAN 



No. 1. 



In the absencGOf stronger primers than used for American 

 fcheUs. we advi.soto put a little black powder In the bottom 

 of the shell, which will generate about the same initial heat 

 aa a stronger primer and help burning the whole charge of 

 Wood Powder, even when not conflneil as thoroughly aa 

 W. P. must be, to give best possible results when used pure 



No. 2 re[iresent3 the properly loaded cartridge. The 

 wads have been i nnnneil down about three-eighllis of an 

 inch with two or three hard blows of a mallet or hammer 

 and a tight fitting ranimiug-stick, until the Wood Powder is 

 pressed into a. sol id mass. Thesliotls then put on in the 

 ordinary way and shells crimped down tightly. For brass 

 shells use wads two sizes larger than gauge. 



Up to onedram more Wood Powdc-r may be used than black 

 powder with comfort, and Increased penetration and pattern.
