Shotguns, Shotgun Shells Or Both 
tj When it comes to a trying and conclusive test of velocity, pattern and penetration such as target 
shooting at extreme distances affords, Winchester Shotguns and Shotgun Shells distance all others. 
This was conclusively shown to be the case at the Registered tournament held at Betterton, Md., 
July 25-27, when H. S. Welles, shooting a Winchester Repeating Shotgun and Winchester “Leader” 
Shells, established a new World’s Record by breaking 138 targets straight from 20 yard rise. The 
previous record was 128 straight, which was also made with the Red \H Combination. 
^ The uniform and consistent shooting of Red \N Goods was once more demonstrated at the Pacific 
Coast Handicap, held in Seattle, August 2-4. At this shoot Mrs. Adolph Topperwein, shooting a 
Winchester Repeating Shotgun and Winchester Shells, won high average for 16 yard single targets, 
breaking 351 out of 360. The High Amateur Average for the same class of targets was won by 
Mr. Edward Schultze, shooting Winchester Shells, his score being 340 out of 360. 
^ Just to prove by way of an exception to the rule, the truth of the 
saying that prophets are without honor in their own country, the 
Championship of Connecticut, shot for at the big and splendidly 
managed tournament of the Pahquioque Rod and Gun Club of Dan¬ 
bury, Conn., was won by a Winchester Shotgun and Winchester 
“Repeater” Shells in the hands of Mr. R. Hollister, his score being 
93 out of 100. Out of an entry of eighty-six, thirty-three shooters used 
Winchester Shotguns and a majority of them Winchester Shells, which 
is significant of the high esteem that Red \H Goods are held in the 
state in which they are made. 
•I To fill the Winchester measure to overflowing, G. W. Chapin, 
shooting a Winchester Shotgun and Winchester “Repeater” Shells won 
the Championship of New England at Wellington, Mass., July 30th.
