In many Parker, Colt and other guns, wads of one or two

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

 two calibre larger than that of pai^er shells, preventing tlio

In the absence Of stronger primers than used for .\morican 

 Shells, we advise to put a little black, powder in the bottom 

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

 as a stronger primer and help burning the whole charge of 

 Wood Powder, even when not confined as thoroughly as 

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



Ko, 2 represents the properly loaded cartridge. The 

 wads have been mmmed down about three-eightha of au 

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

 and a tight fitting ramming-stick, until the Wood Powder Is 

 pressed into a solid mass. The shot is then put on in the 

 orriiuary way and sheila crimped down tightly. For brass 

 shells use wads two sizes larger than gauge. 



IT p to one dram more Wood Powder may be tised than black „ 

 powder withcomfort, and increased penetration and iiatteru. *•
