Metallic Cartridges for All 
Makes and Calibers of 
_ __ t 
Rifles, Pistols and Revolvers 
I T’S a curious thing, the change that has 
come in sportsmen’s habits of buying 
metallic cartridges. 
There was no need to he critical in the 
old days. Game was so plentiful one could 
always get a fair bag with almost any kind 
of ammunition. 
But as game became scarcer, sportsmen 
began to look more consciously for sure 
results in ammunition. 
The remarkable increase in the demand 
for Remington-UMC cartridges dates from 
that time. 
The increase is steady—every year more 
sportsmen asking for Remington-UMC— 
and more dealers specializing in Remington 
metallics. 
A specially satisfying feature of Reming¬ 
ton-UMC service is that Remington metal¬ 
lics are made for all calibers of rifles, pistols 
and revolvers. And the fact that in every 
community there is at least one dealer who 
makes a feature of Remington-UMC. 
The dealer who displays theRed Ball Mark 
of Remington-UMC— that’s the sure sign of 
the right kind of a dealer. Go to him.

any action of the Board of Governors or other
