Two World’s Records 
in One Day 
with the .22 Savage Hi-Power 
AT the Bisley Matches of the British National Rifle Association — the 
y \ biggest rifle match in the world—the .22 Savage Hi-Power rifle and 
Savage ammunition in the hands of Air. Walter Winans on July 
25, 1914, made the highest possible score on the Running Deer target — 
six straight 5’s. This is a World’s record. 
On the same day, with the same rifle and ammunition, Air. Winans 
made the highest possible score on the Running Wild Boar target —six 
straight 5’s. Another World’s record. 
This merely clinches what other shooters have proved — that the 
Imp’s wonderful accuracy (25 consecutive shots in a 20-inch circle at 500 
yards) tremendous velocity (2800 feet — more than half a mile — a sec¬ 
ond) long point blank range (200-yard trajectory less than three inches) 
and trifling recoil (4.6 foot-pounds) make it easier to hit moving game 
with than any other rifle. 
And it has killed Alaskan Brown Bear, Grizzly, Buffalo, and man- 
eating tiger, besides the deer and black bear it was originally designed for.

American Rifles Beat English. 
Los Angeles, Sept. 1.—By a narrow margin of ninety- 
eight points the Los Angeles Rifle and Revolver Club 
defeated the Rifle Club’s Federation of England in the 
recent competition engaged in by these two organiza¬ 
tions. The local club’s score was 1,304, while the 
Britisher’s total ran up to 1,206. The match shot by the 
Englishmen last Friday and by Los Angeles a week 
349 
ago Sunday, is the first of three competitions between 
the local marksmen and their friendly rivals across the 
water. This match was shot under American conditions, 
ten shots per man, with but sighting shot; the ranges 
being 200, 300 and 500 yards. The 200-yard is shot off¬ 
hand, the 300-yard sitting and the 500-yard prone. The 
English do no offhand or standing shooting and rarely 
use the sitting position. In this way the Americans 
had the better of it throughout, offsetting the advantage 
of the Englishmen in having a greater number to pick 
from. 
Comparatively little interest was manifest in the shoot 
by the local marksmen, but thirteen men appearing at 
the’ range for the competition, while those who did 
shoot did so in a very poor manner. Of the scores 
made by these thirteen the high ten. were taken for 
counting. Time and again the high ten men during the 
Pacific Coast League matches which were shot this sum¬ 
mer piled up fifty points more than did the team which 
shot against England. 
One reason for the Englishmen’s defeat was that a 
war is raging nearby them, in which their country is 
engaged. Most of the English regular shots were offi¬ 
cers of the regular army or of the First Reserve who 
went to the front with the English expeditionary force. 
A goodly number of men were left to fire but without 
doubt the heart was taken out of the Britishers’ shoot¬ 
ing force. One thing which probably helped the for¬ 
eigners to make the score was that for some time, sev¬ 
eral weeks previous to the match, those who took part 
in this competition had acted as musketry instructors 
for the recruits being sent to France. This kept them 
constantly in the field and doubtless improved their aim. 
The local riflemen feel that for the Englishmen to fire 
at all under the troubled circumstances, and to fire in 
another man’s game at that, shows true sportsmanship. 
The cable which announced the scores of this match 
informed the local riflemen that the Englishmen would 
fire the second match as scheduled. This will take 
place in October under English conditions, ranges, 200, 
500, 600, 900 and 1,000 yards, all prone, with much 
smaller counting bullseyes than those used in America. 
Here the conditions are more even. The California 
men are used to prone shooting, and, while the Eng¬ 
lish are more skillful long-range men and better hold¬ 
ers prone, the American new Springfield is superior to 
the English Lee-Enfield rifle and this fact may give 
the local men the second match. The English team 
fired at Runnymede, six miles from Windsor castle. 
This is the first international match ever fired by the 
California Rifle Club, and, outside of a New York Club 
the first international match ever shot by an American 
civilian rifle club.

Editor “Forest and Stream:” 
Because I am very busy with the trade and expect 
to be rushed with work in the Sales Department, which, 
I am glad to say is busy at present, I fear that 1 will 
be unable to attend the Westy Hogan shoot and regret 
that I will be deprived of the pleasure of meeting many 
of my friends there. , _ 
However, Mr. O. R. Dickey, from Boston, will meet 
them and greet them for me if not too busy shaking 
hands with his own friends. ^ LENQERKE
