How snug I fit in the chamber--I sure was made for this gun! Well--the breech is closed at last and we\'re all set. Watch me give this shooter more than his money\'s worth. \"Pull--Will that hammer never hit? Ah, there now let\'s go! Hold fast, hard old Bevel Crimp, until I get my punch up! My, what a hot Primer -- it sure got me in the powder quick! On your way, wads and shot! Good old Felt Wads -- how beautifully you expanded to the barrel of the gun and kept my gases in check! There goes my shot with a bang up send off. How round they are and how true they fly! What team work--No holes in the pattern -- look! They\'re going right out after the bird! They\'ve smothered it!-- DEAD!\" THE PETERS CARTRIDGE CO. Dept. F43 Cincinnati, Ohio New York San Francisco PETERS AMMUNITION High Velocity, Target and Victor Shot Shells RUSTLESS R. F. and C. F.
