If I'm counting correctly five shooters, including the winner, were using Winchester LEADER shells --

and one the Winchester PIGEON shell which was offered from 1898 to 1907, both loaded and as an NPE --

The rest used Union Metallic Cartridge Co. shells, TRAP loaded shells --

and ACME NPEs --

I find it impressive that Ridgley B. Bond of Jessop, Maryland, ran them with the then new Baltimore Arms Co. gun.
