Score of FIFTEEN CONSECUTIVE SHOTS BY COL. JOHN BODINE, AT CREEDMOOR, IN THE "BENNETT MATCH," lOct. 3, 1871, with a 
REMINGTON Breech Loading, Long Range Challenge RIFLE 
WHICH MADE IN THE INTERNATIONAL MATCH, 
• 
Tlie Highest Score on Record, 
Please take notice, this Target was made in an OFFICIAL MATCH, not at private Practice. 
Extract from the "Arm!/ and Navy JoumaT' Official Dc/iort, Dated Oct. 3, 1874. 
"The match decides several disputed points, as near as they can be decided; llrst. that there is no perceptible difference in accuracy between breech loaders and 
muzzle loaders, but that If anything the former are the best, as they are certainly the quickest; second, that In our clear climate we may look for even better shooting 
in the future; third, that 
THE REMINGTON RIFLE Stands ahead of all others for Accuracy, 
AS IT DOES IN SIMPLICITY OF MECHANISM THE REMINGTON RIFLES IN TIIE MATCH SCORED THIRTEEN POINTS AHEAD OF TIIE SAME 
NUMBER OF MUZZLE LOADERS, AND TWENTY TWO POINTS AHEAD OF THE SHARP'S BREECH LOADERS IN THESAMB TEAM." 
In the International match, sis muzzle loaders, three REMINGTON, and three other breech loaders were used. Capt. FULTON, Col. BODINE and L. L.
