ECONOMICAL TRAINING OF GUN
NERS.

The method used in the United States
navy for the economical training of the
gunners is very INTEREST," 3. 1t is a we'll
known fact that the cost of firing one
of the large guns used in the navy is very
great, amounting sometimes to $1,000 or
more. To save this expense a very SIM
pie method is employed. In the case Of
the large guns an ordinary Remington
rifle is secured in the breech OF the gun,
and directly in the center of the bore.
50 that when it is fired it's bullet takes
the SAM direction as that of the regular
projectile. The large gun is sighted in
the usual amer. On account OF the
lesser velocity of the small bullet the tar
get is olcaed close to the ship and is
made correspondingly small.
The method used for the six-pounder or
other small guns is slightly different, as
instead of the small rifle a wooden or
dummy cartridge the same size as the
regular cartridge is employed. Through
the center of this wooden cartridge runs
a rifle barrel which is loaded with a A
calibre cartridge. This latter method has
the additional advantage of giving the
gun crew practice in loading as well as
