Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Letters to Young Shooters: On the Choice and Use of a Gun
Certainly, the modern Shooter has every possible convenience in the capabilities of his gun. Accuracy of aim is about all that he requires - a great advan tage over his ancestors, who were obliged to go through all manner of manipulations with their guns before the skill of actual aiming had to be considered. It is fortunate that the latter attribute cannot be mastered and sold by the gunmakers with the gun, or we should soon see the last of British game.
