THE "OLD RELIABLE" AT DAYTON, OHIO, JUNE 17-21, gave a wonderful demonstration of its unsurpassed shooting powers.
In the G. A. H. Arthur Killam, at 20 yds., made a score of 96x100. W. R. Crosby, at 22 yds., made a similar score, and Walter Huff, at 21 yds., scored 97x100. Mr. Huff's score was high in the professional class, and won for him the special money prize and medal offered for the best professional score in this event.
The high general average for the entire week's tournament was made by Walter Huff, with score of 752x800. W. R. Crosby made second high score, 749x800. The above scores included the double target events.
Such splendid shooting from practically the extreme handicap distance amply demonstrates that for power of holding together shot at extreme ranges, and for, accuracy of shooting, the Parker Gun cannot be surpassed.
