Excerpt from The Forest and Stream: Hand-Book for Riflemen, Giving Forms for Organization of Associations, by-Laws, Rules for Practice and Competition; Practical Hints Concerning Ranges, Targets, Scoring, Riffles, Shooting, Etc;, And a List of Rifle Associations in America, Illustrated, Wit In presenting this little volume to the Riflemen of America, the author does not claim originality for all the matter contained in it. His object has been simply to present the greatest amount of practical information, particularly as regards the formation of clubs and the paraphernalia required, in the most condensed form. To Colonel Geo. W. Wingate, Inspector-General of Rifle Practice of the State of New York, the author is indebted for valuable hints and facts taken from his admirable "Manual." He would also make similar acknowledgment to the "Forest and Stream/' which was the first newspaper to report a rifle match at Creedmoor, and which since that time has been foremost among its fellows in earnest effort to promote the growth of Rifle Shooting in America; and the title of the book is intended merely as a recognition of these facts. Wherever the author has found a point of practical value, and capable of being put in so condensed a work as this, he has noted it down in its proper place in this little volume. In brief, the aim has been to make a pocket guide-book of handy reference for riflemen, (especially as members of civil Associations for cultivating this manly accomplishment, ) to make it so simple and free from technicality that it will be easily intelligible, and to put it in form so compact that it can be furnished at a sum within the easy means of every one needing the information.
