seen. I am very anxious to try it out 
on big game. 
FTER I get back to my base of sup- 
plies in Montana and have had a 
chance to try some of the new bullets 
in my Springfield and .256 Newton and 
other high powers that I have played 
with, I will send in my experience with 
them. I have used all types of the 
high power cartridges that have been 
turned out in the country during the 
last ten years except the new Lubaloy 
hollow-point bullet. Like many West- 
ernsI have appreciated the advantages 
of the high power rifle and when the 
soft point bullets made for them could 
not be depended upon, I substituted the 
solid metal jacket and obtained pretty 
good results, far better results than 
with the soft nose, and for shooting at 
running game in heavy brush or Jack 
pine timber the solid point bullets are 
far superior. 
It is most desirable to get a more 
effective bullet for the high power, but 
until we do I do not think we had better 
junk the old reliables. I know that if 
I were very hungry and had a chance 
shot at the north side of a deer, as he 
was headed south through brush and 
timber, I’d a lot rather have an old .45- 
70-405 than a .22 high power, .250 or 
.256. 

Riding the Wild Bull Moose 
of Grand Lake 
(Continued from page 733) 
Then we moved ahead again. The dis- 
tance lessened slowly. Now we were 
three hundred feet from the moose, 
and up came the head again, but with 
that slow, easy motion that told us he 
suspected nothing as yet. So we held 
our breath and froze till the horns dis- 
appeared once more. This time we felt 
we could get into short range. Like a 
feather the canoe went over the soft 
mud and water, two hundred feet, a 
undred and fifty, a hundred—-and up 
came the great head with a jerk that 
told us some subtle sense had warned 
the moose. But he could not see us or 
smell us as yet, for the great beds of 
lilies hid us as we crouched flat in the 
canoe, still drifting toward him. 
E were not more than fifty feet 
away when he caught a glimpse of 
us, and the big ears shot forward, the 
long, pendant nose began to wave and 
quest. Now for the rush! For he 
would start in an instant. 
With a wild yell we made right at 
him, and ten seconds later were in posi- 
tion. 
But now was to come the test of our 
plans. Five years before this we had 
ridden a cow moose in deep water. And
