SPORTING Lire 23 The Proof of the Shells Is in the Shooting UMC have for two years clearly demonstrated their right to every shooter©s preference. With the advent of the steel lining in UMC Arrow and Nitro Club shells four years ago, they forged rapidly ahead in efficiency and popularity and for two years have proven their indisputable superiority. The only possible competitive test for shot shells is at the traps there UMC Steel Lined Shells have won every Interstate Handicap for two years straight (ten handicaps). In these events every other American-made shell was represented, but each time UMC Steel Lined Shells have qualified for first place. What Is the Answer? , UMC Arrow and Nitro Club Shells are steel lined -no other American-made shells are. A further evidence of the superiority of UMC Steel Lined Shells is that this method of manufacture is employed by all the best Shell makers in Europe. * UMC and Remington the record-making combination The Union Metallic Cartridge Co.

You can materially increase your chances of doing so if you use "Winchester ©©Brush" Shells for bird shooting. They are loaded so that, without the loss of velocity or penetration, they make a great big even pattern at the distances mostjbirds are shot. Another desirable feature of Winchester "Brush" Shells is that, when used in a full choke gun, they make a cylinder bore pattern. This means that you can use your favorite trap or duck gun for field shooting without danger of blowing your birds to pieces. For a first barrel load in any gun they cannot be surpassed. They are Loaded in "Leader" and "Repeater" Grades. SOLD EVERYWHERE. CHICAGO TRAP EVENTS. Quinn was the only contestant in the medal Medal, T. C. Fisher; Class B Medal, R. G.
