Tw ins — In Everything But Performance! 
P ICK up two shotgun shells. In 
general appearance they are prac- 
tically alike. 
Put them into the breech of your 
gun and shoot them. You will soon 
discover the difference if one is loaded 
with an inferior powder. 
And how can you tell the quality of the 
powder, unless the shell manufacturer stamps 
the powder maker’s name where you can see 
for yourself the kind and grade you are 
shooting? 
Ballistite 
carry the 
Shells loaded with Dupont or 
Smokeless Shotgun Powders 
du Pont guarantee only when the name 
DUPONT or BALLISTITE is on the car- 
ton, on the box or on the top shot wad. 
These two names are your insurance that 
the load is dependable — that it’s going to fire 
accurately, reliably and safely. 
And no shooter, who is a shooter, is going to 
jeopardize his day’s sport by accepting un- 
branded loads, when all he need do is to ask 
for a standard load of du Pont powder and 
then find the name on the box before he 
picks it up from the counter.
