We once knew a sportsman who thought he had to hand-load his shells or 
buy “other makes” to get the game loads which he preferred. This was 
a great mistake. 
V. M. C. GAME LOADS 
are designed for all kinds of game. 
Any standard combination of powder and shot may be had at your dealers. You 
simply have to ask for a good U. M. C. load for quail or duck, etc.
