A NEW AND DEADLY BULLET.
The Modern Pointed Article Adopted
BY Our Army.


A new pointed bullet, which il Is he
lived will prove the most efficient rife
projectilc in the world as adapted to the
requirements Of modern warfare, is soon
to be adopted By the United States
Government for use in the new United
States magazine army rifles. Tests
have been under way for several months
at Springfield, Mass, and the new bullet
has shown 80 many advantages over
the present service bullet that Brigadier
General William Crozier, chief OF ord
nance of the United States Army, say
that 1t will undoubtedly replace the one
which has been used since 1892.
Instead Of the round point Of the
present bullet, the new bullet has a
long straight tapering point, and is one
third lighter, weighing about 100 grains.
II has a greater velocity up to 1000
yards. stronger energy up to 1900
yards. and a better accuracy up TO o.
900 yards, than the bullet now in use.
IN the test for penetration the sharp.
pointed bullet demonstrated again a
clear superiority over the old service
one, which had record of penetration
untouched Dy any service weapon IN the
world. The old service bullet has pene-
trated oak blocks, well seasoned and
arranged cross-grained, to a depth Of
30.7 inches. The new bullet is capable
Of a penetration ina block Of this kind
Of over forty-nine inches.
With this new bullet, trees will be Of
little protection to soldiers, for at close
range the bullet would not only pass
through the trunk Of the tree, but
through couple Of men hiding behind
it.--Harper's Weekly.
