COULD YOU 
Articles by P. O. Acklcy are of particu-
lar interest to me and I would like to see
more of them in addition to his regular
columns.
How about reprints of the late Col.
Townsend Whelen's early articles or do
copyright laws allow this?

ANOTHER KEITH FAN
I buy your magazine because I like
Elmer Keith and I'll buy a subscription
because he is your shooting editor.. He
saves me a lot of time and money because
he has done all my experimenting for me.
When I went to Africa for a safari,
Keith helped me pick the gun and car-

tridge simply by reading him. I used a
.450 Alaskan Wildcat with Barnes 400-
grain softnose and blunt-nosed solids
with .049 jacket. This is the only gun I
took. ! shot everything from 60-lb. ante-
lope to huge buffalo with the softnose
and killed a tremendous elephant with
the solids.

INSTRUCTOR URGES SHOOTERS UNITEII
I am a Gun Instructor for the State of
New York Conservation Dept., and I think
it is about time sportsmen and hunters
from all over the U.S. get together and
start supporting their rights to have the
kind of guns and rifles they want, and be
free to shoot anytime they have the chance.
5 believe It is up to the shooters, hunters,
and sportsmen to get together, and keep
the free rights that we have always had.

ST COULD HAPPEN HERE I
I have read in various magazines that
the U.S. Army is about to adopt the 9mm
NATO round in place of the. '45 ACP.
Don't let them do it. Below is art'instance
explaining why.
A colleague of mine of the Gloucester-
shire Regiment was on operations against
the Mau 'Mau in Kenya in 1955. While
patroling in the high forest regions he
came upon a known terrorist who made
a run for it. He fired an almost full mag-
azine from his SMG into the man's back
at ten feet and the man kept running. In
sheer frustration he threw his SMG at
the fellow, still to no avail.
After tracking the chop for some seven
miles, he found him dead. He wore two
overcoats, which were then undone. Eigh-
teen of the 9mm bullets were found lodged
in the overcoats. Only seven had actually
penetrated into the body!
Now, what if this fellow had been run-
ning towards my colleague instead of away
and what if he had been waving the great
chopper they al ~ f >

4895 DEFENSE
In the August issue of your excellent
magazine, Mr. Robert Hutton, Technical
Editor, has an article quoting the Du Pont
Company as saying:
"In top loads IMR 4895 is mediocre in
die .270 and .30-06 cartridges and not
acceptable at all in the new .264, 7mm or
.300 Magnums."
Now, about this "mediocre" load in the
.30-06. Someone should flash the news to
the United States Marine Corps because
*heir rifle teams have developed a disgust-
ing habit of winning matches using this
powder. One of their favorite loads for
iong range is a 200-grain B.T. bullet in
front of 48-49 grains of the IMR 4895.
, In the California High Power Rifle
Championship Matches I placed fourth in
the long range aggregate with a 198 out of
8 possible 200 with 25 "V"'s using this
"mediocre" load. ■

WANTS INFORMATION
As a reader of your fine magazine, I
>vould like to ask if any of the advertisers
supply goods to the U.K. I don't mean
guns or ammunition, but scopes, holsters,
camping equipment, etc., since many of
these things are unobtainable in England.
■ I would also like<some information about
a shotgun I have. It is supposed to have
