Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Instructions to Young Marksmen: In All That Relates to the General Construction, Practical Manipulation, Causes and Liability to Error in Making Accurate Performances, and the Theoretic Principles Upon Which Such Accurate Performances Are Founded I am not aware of any treatise, published either in this country or England, that is of any use to an inquiring marksman. The observations and deductions of Robins, made more than a century ago, stand out, however, as a monument of profun dity of thought, grasp of conception, clearness of expression, and prophetical accuracy, which compel us to admire, nay, almost worship, the genius of that eminent man. Scloppetaria, or Remarks on Rifle Practice, was written by a corporal in the British Rifle service, and published in London in 1804. It is a fair performance, but falls very short of what is required by the marksman of the present day. The article Rifle, in all the Cyclo pdadias is very dry and barren and in Dr. U re's it requires te-writing. Greener on Gunnery de votes a few pages to the examination and condemna tion of Dr. Ure and the belted bullet, making extracts from Robins, advocating a decreasing twist.

Not illustrated. 1874 edition. Excerpt: ... of pigeon-shooting, and not go on under loose, lax methods. It is essential that the rule as to holding the gun should be habitually complied with--that is, the butt must be kept below the elbow of the shooter until the bird is on the wing. It is just as easy to conform to this rule as not, provided it is done habitually and constantly, and it will save a great deal of trouble when public matches or sweepstakes are engaged in. If it is not regarded at home in their own clubs, the shooters will be certain to have birds decided lost which they have killed, when shooting elsewhere, by reason of breach of this rule. When several men are shooting-at home, that is the place to learn to shoot according to the rules. If they are disregarded, the club and its chosen marksmen will pay the penalty of their neglect another day, when there will be a smart to it. Therefore I say it is better for members of these clubs to pay for a few birds at home, by enforcement of the rules, than to be beaten elsewhere through having dead birds challenged for improper holding of the gun. I have acted as referee many times, and have seen numbers of birds killed in such a manner that if an appeal had been made, I should have been compelled to decide against the shooters for having brought up the gun to the shoulder too soon. It is better to get used to holding the gun well down. When the habit is formed, a man can shoot as well that way as the other, and then he will not be bothered and confused by being challenged under the rule in a strange place. Conform to the rules at home, and it will be easy to observe them abroad. Shooters need not suppose that they will not be enforced in other places because they have been accustomed to disregard them at home. When I first...
