    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 145 We$t 36tb Sfree* New York Ci4^5 KY, December 31, 1919. 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. LLL/A
