FRED GILBERT SHOOTS. 
The tremendous popularity of Fred Gilbert 
was shown on March 17th, and it’s a good thing 
for snakes that Fred doesn’t assume the role of 
St. Patrick and order scatter gun destruction of 
reptiles. It is estimated that a thousand clubs 
shot a Gilbertian event, approximately, 20 thou¬ 
sand shooters, who blew out in the neighbor¬ 
hood of two million shells. Of course the main 
F. G. event was pulled at DuPont Gun Club, 
where the honored cracker of the disc was 
present in person and shot up 93 out of 100 aero- 
saucers, listened to plaudits and laudations from 
Mayors, Governors, bank presidents, senators and 
the president of DuPont Powder, whom Fred 
has represented for twenty years. Scores at

Remington, .22 Metallics 
I N PAST years, many a .22 rifle was left to rust. However good a rifle a man bought 
he never could be sure of results. 
Not that the rifles themselves were not all they should be. The trouble was that 
.22 cartridges were not considered important enough for a man to be critical about. 
A. man who would insist on getting Remington-UMC in shot shells and the larger 
metallics would take anything that was put on the counter so long as it looked like it 
might be a box of .22’s. 
In spite of all that. .22 rifle shooting as a sport continued to grow, and with the 
growth came a more critical selection of ammunition. 
Then the run on Remington-UMC .22 metallics started, and it has been grow¬ 
ing ever since. 6 
world° day Rem ' ngton '^ M( ^ - 22 Metallics are the fastest selling ammunition in the 
• Mour Remington-UMC dealer —the one who displays the Red Ball Mark of Rem- 
mgton-L MC — he s the man to go to for Remington-UMC .22’s. 
Get him to show you the Remington .22 Rifles—slide action Repeaters. Single Shots, 
and the Autoloading. They are in a class by themselves for “feel,” ease of operation and 
consistent performance.
