L. L. Little to Horace Kephart, December 31, 1919
In a letter to Horace Kephart on December 31, 1919, L. L. Little inquires on behalf of Howard Schroeder of Nebraska whether an inexperienced person could make a lead bullet that would be hard enough to shoot with a .22 Savage H. P. rifle. He also asks where Schroeder would buy gun powder and suggests E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company. Mr. Little mentions he spoke to Anthony Fiala of Rogers Peet Company who will release a new .22 rifle soon and will have one sent to Kephart for testing and a possible review in “All Outdoors” or “Outing”.Jill Outdoors

Mr. Horace Kephart,
Bryson City, N.D.
Dear Mr. Kepharts-
Mr. Howard Sohroeder, Elwood, Nebr., wishes
to know whether it is possible for an amateur to mould a lead
bullet that will be hard enough to follow the rifling in the
.22 Savage H.P. rifle with a full charge of powder. I am
frank to say that I do not know and I wish you would be kind
enough please ,to give him the benefit of your experience. He
wishes to be referred also to the proper place for powder
which'I suppose, is Du Pont.
I was talking yesterday with Mr. Anthony
Fiala of Rogers Peet Company here. Without any attempt on
my part of securing 3uch comment he had this to say about
yourself: "Without mentioning any names, Mr. Kephart is one
of the few writers who is not in the hot-air class."
Mr. Fiala by the way is in the process of
getting out a new .22 which looks rather good to me without
having made any tests of it. It has a detachable barrel and
the stock baok of the pistol grip is also removable by a
very simple push button. There is an extra barrel of ,25
gauge about nine inches long which takes the place of the
rifle barrel. He has agreed to have one sent to you as soon
as manufacturing begins. This will probably not be in the
immediate future,but I am hoping to have the benefit of your
oomment of it in ALL OUTDOORS and OUTING. Details about
this can be arranged when the time eomes.
Very truly yours,
L L Little,
Editor ALL OUTDOORS.
