In the team race for the club championship of Virginia, Sept. 2, 
at the Virginia State shoot, the West End Gun Club defeated ten 
competitors by a score of 225. Each team consisted of five men, 
and each man shot at 50 targets. Mr. Franklin Stearns, who was a 
member of the winning team, won the individtial championship 
vv!(h the e.xcellent score of 96 out of 100. 
The Winchester, N. H., Rod and Gun Club will hold its first 
annual tournament Tuesday, Sept. 17. A ?2.'i cup is up for a 
five-man team shoot, and a $12 cup for high gun. This last- 
mentioned cup is open both to amateurs and professiom's. 
Swcepstake.s optional. So we are informed by the secretary, Mr. 
F. D. Lesure. 
The Winchester Repeating Arms Company, of New Haven, 
Conn.i announce in our advertising columns this week a new 
Winchester Repeating shotgun, model 1901, 10-gauge, lever action. 
Jt is specially bored for either black or .smokeless powder, and 
for duck and. other wildfowl shooting. 
Much to his profound di.sappointment, IVlr. Walter F. Sykes, 
president of the New Utrecht Gun Club, and active in promoting 
Ihe success of the New York State shoot, jotuneyed to Europe on 
Saturday of last week, important business interests there claiming 
imperatively his personal attention. 
The Forester Gun Club, of Newark, N. J., will hold a live-bird 
and target handicap on Thanksgiving Day. The programme will 
be on popular lines, and there will be enough of it to keep up 
the competition all day. The secretary is Mr. John J. Fleming, 
21 Waverly place. Newark. 
Col. R. S. Terry, president of the Lynchburg Gun Club, was 
elected president of the Virginia State Sportsmen's Association, 
and Dr. J. A. /ackson was elected to the office of secretary- 
treasurer, at a meeting of the Association, held in Richmond, on 
Mondav evening. Sept. 2.

In the match between Messrs. C. M. Stark, of Dunbarton, N. H., 
and A. S. Langley, of Exeter, N. H., at Concord, N. H., on Sept. 
5, the former won by a score of 87 to 86. An interesting account 
of the m.atch is published elsewhere in our columns. 
The postponed race for the cham'pionship of New Jersey between 
Mr. E. Vandeveer and Dr. W. F. Gardiner will take place Satur- 
day, -Sept. 21, if the present intentions are carried out. 
Mr. Elmer E. Shaner, informs us that the Interstate Association 
will give a tournament at Louisville, Ky., under the auspices of 
the Jefferson County Gnn Club, on Oct. 2, 3 and 4. 
The Waterville Gun Club won the State championship for teams 
of five men, at the jNIaine State shoot on Sept. 2, with a score of 
226. Each man shot at 50 targets.

Maine State Shoot* 
Portland. Me. — The annual Maine State shoot, which gener- 
ally ends the trap .shooting season in Maine, was held on the 
grounds of the Portland Gun Club on Monday and Tuesday, 
Sept. 2 and 3. 
Monday, Sept. 2. 
The earlv morning was -showery, but later it cleared and the 
sun shone brightly the rest of the day. There was a light 
breeze, but nor enough to interfere with the scores. Representa- 
tives from the Auburn. Androscoggin, Brunswick, Bath, Rich- 
mond, and Waterville Gun Clubs were present, besides visitors 
from other localities. The home club was well represented, and 
altogether about fifty shooters took part on the first day. There 
■was also present i large number of spectators. The scores aver- 
aged very well. E. A. Randall, of Portland, was "high gun" for 
the day. with 172 breaks out of a possible 180. S. L. Preble, of 
Waterville, and G. H. Darton, of Portland, were tied for second 
place, with 168 breaks. Events 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, and 9 were at known 
angles, 4, 6, and 8 at unknown. 
The event of chief interest was the third, which was for the 
Team Championship of the State, five men to a team, each man 
to shoot at fiftv targets. The Portland Gun Club has held the 
cham.pionship for the past two years. This year the two Ran- 
dalls each broke 50 straight, but, as the rest of the team shot in 
poor form, the M'atcrville club won. They have once before 
held the championship, rn 1887. The following is the score for 
the day:

ToesJayt Sept. 3. 
TI.e morning openi'd cloudy, but gradually the cflowls^ Broke 
rmd by noou the sun appeared for good, and the afternoon s light 
was good. .-Vgain there was a light breeze, which changed the 
flight of the targets from lime to rime, but which was not stiff 
enough to cau-^^e them to "duck" and so did not interfere mate- 
rially with the shooting. The attendance vvas smaller than on 
Monday, not over six squads being entered in any one event. The 
average of breaks was higher than on the first day. E. A. Ran- 
dall was again "high gxm for the day, with 174 breaks out of a 
possible 180. S. Greene, of Waterville.. was a close second, with 
173, and ended the programme with a run something over 70 
straight breaks. The principal event of the cfay was Event 3, 
which was at fiftv targets to the man, for the Individual Cham- 
pionship of the State. It was a very close and interesting race; 
S. L. Preble -ind D. P. Foster, both of Waterville, finally tied 
with 49 out of the .""yO. They shot ofl' the tie at 25, and each 
broke 24. They again shot off at 25, and each broke 23. They 
then shot at 10, and Foster broke 9 and Preble 10, thus winning 
the championship. Preble won the Individual Championship also 
in 18S9. Foster was last year tied with Hunnewell for the cham- 
tiionship, with 48, and was then beaten in the shoot-off by one 
break, he making 44 out of a possible 45, ^yhile Hunnewell broke 
his 45 straight. Hunnewell and Greene this year each broke 48. 
The Portland Gun Club donated a handsome sterling silver cup 
to each member of the winning team on the first day, and a fine 
trophy to the winner of the Individual Championship and of the 
"high gun" for each day. The shoot passed off very smoothly 
and to the general sp.tisfaction of all concerned. 
The following are the scores for the day, the programme being 
the same as that of the first day:

After the regular programme was finished, the Lovell Badge, 
which was held by the Waterville Club, was shot for. Under a 
recent agreement this badge, which is subject to challenge, was 
to be shot for at each tournament held in the State. Five men 
to a team, each man to shoot at fifty targets, twenty-five at known 
angles and twenty-five at unknown. Only two teams entered, 
one from PortLnnd and one from Waterville. The Portland team 
made the best score that has ever been made by a five-man team 
in competition in Maine, and won by two breaks.

The Shooter^s View of Recoil. 
Froftt the London Field. 
It is an essential introduction to the more practical aspects of 
the case that the mathematical side of recoil shall be clearly and 
precisely laid down. Following upon that it is of course useful 
to show what bearing the resulting experiments have upon gun 
fitting and the selection of guns and ammunition giving a mini- 
mum of punishing eflfect. As is the case with many other depart- 
ments of scientific research, the teachings prove in the end to do 
very little more than confirm the observations which have been 
based upon an accumulation of practical experience. This does 
not, of course, show that scientific research is valueless, because 
science enables us to state the definite laws which govern an ap- 
parent medley of inconsistent experiences. By expressing the 
rules of recoil on a clear basis, we are at least certain of making 
the principles so obvious that the shooter and the gunsmith will 
both know better than they knew before how to reduce this 
superfluous and ineffective part of one's experience in letting off 
a gun. Obviously recoil of some sort or other must be experi- 
enced, and the idea is therefore to reduce its manifestations to the 
smallest possible degree. Mr. Griffith's experiment and explana- 
tions show us more clearly than has ever before been shown how 
this desirable object may be attained. 
In the first place it will be remembered that all Mr. Griffith's 
experiments showed the value of recoil registered with a 7.91b. 
gun with varying condition^ of loading. Now it must not be sup- 
posed that this is an absolute quantity which will be met with in 
every gun, and with every shooter firing a different class of am- 
munition. The experimental values of recoil must be taken solely 
and only as the amount of recoil that would be experienced with a 
guti having _ the same given weight. The energy of recoil ex- 
perienced with different weights of gun is inversely proportionate 
to the weight of the recoiling mass. Taking a 71b. gun as a better 
example of the weight met with in practice, we should expect a 
proportionately higher recoil, due to the lesser weight of the gun. 
The moment this truth is clearly grasped, and the equally obvious 
truth to the effect that any increase in the recoiling mass pro- 
duces a reduction of recoil, a wide field is opened up for the ap- 
plication of the root prineiples of the problem. This is so because 
the shooter adds a portion of his own weight to the mass recoil- 
ing, and so much weight as is added to the gun produces a cor- 
responding reduction of its recoil. Supposing, for instance, that 
the firm grasping of a 7.91b. gun served "to provide such an addi- 
tion to its weight as to raise the recoiling mass to a weight double 
the value, the recoil would follow suit in inverse proportion, there- 
by being reduced to one-half. 
There is a very important bearing of the added weight of the 
shooter's body which must be taken into very careful account. 
The recoil of the gun can only be reduced in the manner de- 
scribed, provided the gun is properly bedded into the shoulder 
during the time that the gun is building up its velocity of recoil. 
The curves show clearly that the whole of the recoil is developed 
during the first half inch of the backward travel of the gun. It 
is necessary, therefore, that the shooter's shoulder and the gun 
shall be brought into such close contact as to form a single recoil- 
ing mass in much under the first half-inch of recoil. If the gun 
were so held that it had a virtual freedom of recoil for half an 
inch, the whole of the recoil energy represented by experiments 
with a freely recoiling gun would be built up, and' the shooter's 
body, would then only come into service for absorbing the recoil 
that had thereby been produced. It is, of course, a practical ques- 
tion of considerable intricacy to determine or even to theorize 
upon the distance that a gun must recoil before it can be consid- 
ered, as so much bedded into the shoulder as to create a tangible 
addition to the recoiling mass. The clothes, for instance, are 
themselves of a definite thickness, and how much they may give 
way. spring fashion, before offering a solid resistance "to the butt 
of the gun is not a problem we should care to tackle with a view 
to evolving a practical answer. It might well hanpen that w^re 
such an experiment possible, it would be shown that only a few 
well-trained shooters could bring the weight of their shoulder to 
bear sufficiently soon to affect materially the quantity of recoil 
produced. That shooters do differ in this respect, and that some 
do materially control the amount of recoil produced, will be known 
to those who have worked wth smgle-trigger mechanism, where 
the operation of the parts depends upon an intermediate pull due 
to the recoil of the gun. Quite apart fi-om the actual bedding of 
the gun in the shoulder is the character of the muscular tension 
set UP by the shooter for the purpose of creating a solid resistance 
against the butt of the gun. This muscular tension will not only 
produce a rigidity of the body, which adds to the amount of the, 
mass recoiling, but it also brings to bear a kind of spring tension, 
which produces ,inother kind of resistance equally to be taken into 
accoimt. 
Aiiolher form of resistance which practice unconsciously teaches 
the shooter to bring into play is a sudden forward movement of the 
body, which causes it to meet the backward movement of the gun. 
"Thai, this exists is apparent to those who haye watched experienced 
shooters when firing with ammunition which hangs fire or fails 
altogether to go off. Under these circumstances shooters of this 
class are noticed to lurch forward, losing their balance, so finding 
it necessary to step forward somewhat to readjust their equilibrium. 
What is made clear by all these arguments is that the shooter 
himself Is a very important factor in regtilating the amount of re- 
coil registered by his gun. It will also follow from this that the 
shooter has a regulating effect upon the manner in which the re- 
coil that has once been brought into action is absorbed. Whatever 
that recoil is, the shooter must learn to regulate for himself, by the 
operation of his sub-conscious intelligence, the amount and char- 
acter of the resistance that must be brought to bear to absorb a 
given amount of energy by the creation of an opposing force 
acting over a given distance of travel. From all that has been 
said, it will be equally clear that the gun maker must bring his 
skill to bear so as to .stock his weapon in a manner that will con- 
duce to the result demanded by the sportsman. The common 
saving that a gun comes nicely to the shoulder has, in a way, an 
indirect bearing Upon the question of recoil. With an over-long 
or an over-short or in any other way an ill-fitting stock, the 
shooter is bound to find a certain amount of difficulty in creatiiig 
the satisfactory bedding that is necessary to keep down recoil. 
One or two mishaps in the course of a day, resulting in letting 
the gun off before the stock is in its proper _ position, will be 
sufficient to create a sore shoulder, which will accentuate the 
sensations of recoil for the rest of the day. 
Even though it might be demotistrated that in most cases the 
gun is not so held as materially to reduce the recoil, it would not 
tollow that the effects would be the same once a given recoil had 
been established. The initial stages of recoil during the first half 
inch of travel would in almost all cases bring the gun into close 
contact with the shoulder of the .shooter; and the bringing of this 
recoil to rest can, as has already been indicated, be regulated to 
the advantage of the shooter. Supposing a case is taken where the 
gun is so lightly held that it acquires its full velocity of recoil be- 
fore coming into contact with the shoulder, the gun would strike 
the shoulder \yith a velocity likely to create a local bruising 
effect, as distinguished from the general movement of the shoulder 
which would result from a more gradual bedding during the earlier 
stages of recoil. All thi« goes to show that, while Mr. Grifiith's 
experiments teach us how to produce the required result on the 
shot with a minimum of recoil, they cannot do very much to teach 
the shooter how to regulate that recoil to the best advantage. The 
gun maker will no doubt realize in a manner not hitherto possible 
the importance of studying the form of the_ shooter and the 
character of the slock in cases where excessive recoil is com- 
plained of. It will no doubt, therefbre, show the gun maker the 
importance of paying the most scrupulous attention to those por- 
tions of the stock which come into contact with the shoulder, and 
no doubt much improvement will be registered as these points re- 
ceive increasing attention. To the shooter himself, once he is in 
possession of a gun .-♦ocked to the most favorable conditions, it is 
mainly a question of practice to accustom the body to taking the 
recoil in the least distressing manner. Whenever a shooter is 
questioned as to his experiences of recoil at the moment of firing 
he will almost invariably state that he was not at the time thinking 
of the recoil, and was, therefore, ignorant of his sensations. The 
act of shooting being a sort of sub-conscious operation, the shooter 
can only learn to regulate his recoil by conscious action in those 
cases where it may be noticed that he has acquired some awkward 
trick of holding, militating against a proper bringing of the gun to 
the shoulder. 
The matter must be left at this apparently indefinite stage, 
because it will be seen that recoil in its more practical aspects 
ceases to be a subject for exact inquiry by_ the scientist, and 
resolves itself into a practical application of principles which have 
long been eftablished. Starting with the conditions of loading that 
give a minimum of recoil proportionate to the work demanded of 
the gun, the further reduction of recoil is one that cannot be 
dealt with by velocity measurements on a freely suspended gun.
