Boosted by the “Boosters” at Anaconda 
Winchester Shells and Guns continued sweeping up the West at the hig tournament given 
by "The Boosters” at Anaconda, Montana, September 8-10. Out of an average entry of 150 
shooters, almost 60% used Winchester Shells. Considering that there were five brands of shells in 
evidence, such a percentage is, to say the least, significant as to what the "wise ones’ consider the'best 
shell. As to winnings—well, it was all Winchester, as the following shows: 
High Amateur Average. —E. D. Farmin, shooting Winchester "Leader” Shells. 
Score, 571-600. 
Second High Amateur Average.— Frank Fuller, shooting Winchester ''Leader" 
Shells. Score, 558-600. 
Third High Amateur Average. —J. Thomas, shooting Winchester 'Leader Shells.

and Winchester "Leader” Shells. Score, 574-600. 
Second High Professional Average. —Fred Gilbert, shooting Winchester Leader”
