The Rifle and the Hound in Ceylon

Paperback (Blurb March 10, 2017)
Three double-barrelled No. 10 rifles, to carry ten drachms No. 6 powder. One double-barrelled small-bore rifle, sighted most accurately for deer-shooting. Express to carry five or six drachms, but with hardened solid bullet. Two double-barrelled No. 10 smooth-bores to carry shot or ball; the latter to be the exact size for the No. 10 rifles. According to my experience, such a battery is irresistible. The breech-loader has manifold advantages over the muzzle-loader in a wild country.
