NOBEL’o BALLISTITE SPORTING CARTRIDGES, WATEKPROGF, ABSOLUTE SMOKET.ES3NESS UNIFORMITY—UNDER TJIS INFLUENCE OF EITHER DAMP OR HEAT QUICK IGNITION; LOW RECOIL EXCELLENT PENETRATION THE REST FOR ALL GAME SHOOTING. other cartridges. I find them wonderfully quick on the bird—in fact, the pull of the hammer and fall of the bird is in-.-tar.tanc-ous. Absolutely no smoko or recoil; residue in gun scarcely perceptible, even after a day’s shooting, 1 have been able this season to make sure of birds (long shots; that before I would never have shot at. Previous to this season I have used both smokeless and black powder, and I certainly prefer BALLISTITE CARTRIDGES to any other.”—August 13, 1597. CAPTAIN WHITNEY, Auckland, New Zealandln a recent issue of the Melbourne Argus appeared the following:—With regard to the proposal to rc-arm the infantry and mounted men of the Victorian military forces with the '303-boro Martini-Enfield rifle, Captain J. Whitney, senior, of the Colonial Ammunition Company, who has just returned from an eighteen months’ visit to England, states that the proposal is justified by the fact that the '303 single-fire rifle has been universally adopted at Home, and it is recognised ns specially suitable for the English cavalry. The objections raised on the ground of the (difficulty of cleaning Captain Whitney regards as baseless, and cites an instance of a ’303 rifle from which ho has fired 8000 ROUNDS OF BALLISTITE CAETRIDQES—A SIMILAR POWDER TO CORDITE—and which has never had a drop of water ar acid applied to it in the cleaning, and yet is as free from corrosion now as the day it was purchased. Mr E. A. COOK, Dargavillo, New Zealand “ I have much pleasure in giving you a result of my trial this season of NOBEL’S BALLISTITE CARTRIDGES My bag for the season is 82 brace pheasants, a much larger quantity than I ever got before with CARTRIDGES MAY BE OBTAINED PROM ALL GUN MAKERS AND AMMUNITION DEALERS. 4 MR J. HALL, Brookfield Inn, Dovonport, writes :—“ I have had 700 Ballistite Cartridges, and have used them with the greatest success —in fact, I believe them 10 yard? better than any I have ever used. I have killed about 45 recks with them in a run.”— 28th Jan., 18S7. GENERAL SIR GEO. S. WHITE, V.C., G.C.1.E., K. 0.8., Commandor-in-Chief in India, writes “ Ihaveused Nobel’s Special Cartridge loaded with Sporting Ballistite, and have been struck by the very long distances at which it tills. I prefer it to any propellent force I have yet used,”—sth Jan., 1897.
