PERFECT RIFLE SHOOTING

Riiemen are becoming so proficient
in the matter of making consecutive
bulls eyes at the regulation distances of
500. 800 and l 900 yards, that the idea
of increasing the distances must sug-
gest itself to all who desire to see some
n win. The shooting at Wimbledon,
on Thursday and Friday last, wa I'M
precedented in the history of rifle shoot
ing. On the first day, Frank Hyde,
(American,) Lieut.. Col. Fenton, and
another contestant, made each seven
consecutive bulls eyes, the highest score
possible in the contest for the Armor-
er's company prize. In shooting of
the tie, each man made three consecu-
tive bulls eyes. This would seem to
be perfection. But the scores of Fri
day were ven more wonderful. While
Frank Hyde (American) was ahead at
the 1000 yards range, Morse (Ameri-
cam and fifteen other contestants made
the highest possible score at 800 yards.
At the 900 yards range, Hyde and six
others made the highest possible score
attainable.
1t is evident that in a short time
most of the crack marksmen of the
world viii be enabled to make a success
sion of bulls eyes with the regularity
Of clock work. Then the sport will
lose much of its interest. for a contest
will simply show that one man las
practiced as much as another, and spec
tators-and perhaps the contestants
themselves--will not be satisfied unless
the outcome shall determine some one
to be the superior marksman. Hence
some change will soon be demanded.
Either the distances will have to be In
creased to 1000, 100 and 200 yards,
or the targets be made smaller. AS
men become more proficient the condi-
tons of success must be made greater.
This same question is agitating the
billiard world. When men like Schae-
fer a make runs of from 400 to over
900 points in a three ball game, it is
manifest that the conditions must be
changed. And it should be a matter
of great pride among American sports
men that Americans have demonstrate
ed the greater skill in rifle shooting,
billiard playing, and, we may add, shot
gun shooting. Onr representative cham
pions in these respective sports have
outgrown their swaddling clothes.
Their profciency-we had almost said
perfection-demands harder conditions.
And it is scarcely too much to hope
that in a few short years, the leading
riflemen Of the world, with Americans,
as usual, in the lead, will make as good
scores at / 800 yards range as they do
now at 1000 yards. Their increasing
skill, and the improvements in fire.
arms will make such a thing certain.
The LEADER cannot believe that the
highest proficiency attainable in rifle
shooting is anywhere nearly reached.
The day will surely come when men
will make great scores at great dis
tances, compared to which the scores
and ranges of the present day will seem
as fit only for children.
