Just so long as game and hunter*
exist arguments will continue con
cerning firearms—the proper caliber
of rifle to use for big and small game,
the proper size shot to use on game
birds.
The old 44 Winchester, now an al
most obsolete gun in the woods
today, has accounted for more game
killed than any rifle Jn America.
Everything was slain with it. Hun
dreds of thousands of buffalo, elk,
moose, black and grizzly bear and
thousands upon thousands of deer
layed low with this old block pow
der shooting firearm. Yet today, it
would be almost an impossibility to
force such a rifle upon a, modern
hunter. He would scoff and Jest at
its shooting qualities, at its range, its
velocity, its killing power, and yet
that old gun has downed more game
animals, as we have already stated,
than, any modero firearm in Amér
ica today.
Even the old muzzle-loading rifle
was a mighty fine “«hootin’ iron” in
Its day. In fact, it helped largely
tn winning our independence and
played an important part in such
battles as The Battle of Bunker Hill
and helped write into history the ex
