The following matches were won at the great annual military tournament just concluded, by shooters 
who used U. M. C. ammunition: 
The Leach Cup flatch. 
The All Comers Match. 
The Spencer Cup Match 
Revolver Team Match. 
Military Revolver Championship. 
Inspector's Match was won by the new U. M. C. bullets, and in President's Match the high score 
was tied by U. M. C. cartridges. In fact, at the rifle ranges nearly every shooter used the new U. M. C. 
.30 Government cartridge, except where the Government make was specified, and the scores made were 
the best in many years.

High Velocity Low Pressure Cartridges. 
.45=70, .45=90 and .50=110 Calibers, Loaded with Smokeless Powder and Soft Point Metal Patched Bullets* 
FOR BIG QA/VIE SHOOTING AT DISTANCES UP TO 200 YARDS. 
We are now able to furnish, through the regular trade channels, the above new Winchester High Velocity, large bore, cartridges for Winchester Model 1886, .4S-70, .45-90 and 
.50-110 caliber rifles. These cartridges, although they give high velocity and great muzzle energy, develop only slightly increased initial pressure. By their use, owners ot Win- 
chester Model 1886 rifles of the calibers mentioned can greatly increase the power of their guns. For fine shoDting, a slight alteration of sights may be necessary when these 
cartridges are used. When ordering new rifles in which it is intended to use these cartridges, it should be so stated in the order, so that the proper sights may be fitted. 
The following table shows the muzzle" velocity, penetration and trajectory of these High Velocity Low Pressure Cartridges:

With the great increase in velocity which these cartridges have, their trajectory is proportionately flatter, and, at 200 yards, their remaining energies are practically the same as 
those of the small caliber high-power cartridges. It is a desirable feature of these cartridges that they can be used by persons who fear to use the high-power small caliber cartridges 
on accouat of their great range. These points considered, and the fact that the results are obtained with bullets of large cross section, make these cartridges unsurpassed for 
striking and killing power at the distances at which most big game is killed.
