Citizenry, Trained and 
Accustomed to Arms 
— PRESIDENT WILSON 
Get accustomed to gun powder. Learn to shoot straight. That s at least 50% 
of a soldier’s equipment. 
Perhaps the training will stand you in stead in some moment of personal dan¬ 
ger. The lives of your wife and children may sometime depend on your 
steadiness and courage. The best weapon to practice with is the

tells how to cast, and gives the diameter and weight 
of the round balls for use in shotguns, explains how 
they are loaded and shows what results can be secured, 
explains how powder is bought and how measured for 
use in rifles and shotguns, telling how many cartridges 
one pound of powder will load with any given charge; 
gives tables reducing drams to grains, tables of prim¬ 
ers, bullets and powders, showing clearly just what 
powder, primer, bullet, etc. to use for any rifle or 
pistol. 
To answer the inquiry: “Does it pay to reload 
shells?” there are tables showing the actual cost of the 
factory cartridge compared with the cost of reloaded 
cartridges, showing in detail the cost of primed shells, 
cost of powder, cost of bullets ready made, cost of bullets 
New .44 Revolver Bullet and .30 U. S. Spitzer point 
gas-check bullet shown in Ideal Book No. 25. 
when you make them yourself, etc. The information in 
this book is essentially accurate and reliable and it will 
certainly make the average man sit up and take notice 
when he sees what a surprisingly big saving can be 
effected by reloading his shells. The books shows that 
the .22 Savage High Powder cartridges usually sold to 
the consumer at $3.42 per hundred, can be reloaded with 
a charge that compares very favorably with the factory 
load, at an expense of 62c per 100. The .25-20 high 
velocity factory cartridges cost $1.70 per 100; you can 
reload them with a mighty satisfactory load at an ex¬ 
pense of only 59c. The .25-35 and .25-36 factory cart¬ 
ridges sell at $2.97 per 100; they can be reloaded for 
high power requirements at 79c per 100. The 30-30 and 
.303 factory cartridges sell for $3.42 per 100; you can 
reload the empty shells and have 100 first class cart¬ 
ridges for 97c. 
The book shows how by the use of modern reloading 
tools anyone can cast perfect bullets, exactly suited to 
his particular rifle or pistol; and after the bullet 
is made it is an extremely simple matter to pre¬ 
pare the cartridges as it is only necessary to 
expel the old primer, seat the new primer, insert 
powder charge, place bullet in end of shell and 
crimp the shell on to the bullet, all of these opera¬ 
tions being performed in a single, simple and inexpen¬ 
sive set of tolls. 100 cartridges like the .32-40 H. P. 
cartridge cost $3.42 per 100; the shells can be reloaded 
with factory bullets and have the same identical powder 
charges and primers as in the new shells for $1.35. 
You save $2.07 while enjoying one of the most pleas¬ 
ant and interesting half-hours of your shooting ex¬ 
periences.
