Watch him lift his nose in the early morning sorting out scents from the field like a gourmet samp- ling a grand buffet. When you hunt with adog, you are’ twice blessed,” because there’ sno question that this will add greatly to both your enjoyment of the sport and your. success as well. But before you turn your four-footed radar set Joose in the field, it’s only fair and wise to give him the tune-up he de. serves for top perfor- mance. For example, a dog that has been confined toa kennel or limited run all summer should be given a chance. to tene his muscles and develop his stamina before being asked for a hard day’s hunt. At least a month or so before hunt- ing starts, try ta ger him “out for a run of fifteen to twenty minutes a day, and ‘an hour or two on-week- ends. This is really all he needs tov harden “up ‘and- crank the cobwebs out of his system. During ‘this fall training ‘tune-up, .vou. should also spend’ time reviewing the basic ocbedie nce com- mands. While no more than ten. mMinutes.a day need be, or should be, devoted ro this phase of your partnership, -itis important. A dog inthe. field. that. won’t sit, stay, heel or come when com- manded “can be. more of a headache than a help. And though you don’t want -a fat field. dog, make sure. his diet matches his in- creased activity. Just the. cold weather alone will enlarge his fuel needs. Another good practice is to add a good..tablespoon- ful or two of lard to his daily winter ration. [f he’s picked up some summer pounds, however, let him trim down to good running weight before upping his feed. Finally, if he hasn’t seen the vet for a year, this is the most appropriate time for a complete check-up, A healthy dog hunts better, So will you, incidentally, when he’s running point for the party. in calibres for new model 700 series When you have a product as successful as the Remington Model 70C bolt action rifle, there’s agreat temptation on the part of the manufacturer to leave it “just as it is.”’ And, frankly, it is un. likely that anvone would complain if Remington did just that. For, since it was introduced in 1962, the Model 700 has grown in reputation until it is now the most popular bolt action rifle on the market, Key factors behind the 700’s rapid rise undoubted. ¥ include the tremendous strength of its action, the world’s strongest, the clean, classic lines of its sharp, highly design, its responsive trigger pull, and outstanding accuracy in an exceptionally wide variety of calibers, Once a gun has been in the field for a pericd of time, however, opportuni. ties for minor changes or improvements frequently become apparent. Reming. ton’s philosophy has been to make such improve- ments whenever they seem justified rather than to stand pat, New appearance features for the Model 70G include an engine-turned bolt, new, skip-line checkering and a More attractive, all.black butt plate. In addition, the Model 700 BDL rifle will now have a white-line spacer at the butt plate, a revised checkering pat- tern, and a more easily adjustable carrying sling utilizing a buckle instead of tabs. in 1969, the Model 700 BDL will be chambered for two additional calibers: the 6&5 mm Remington Magnum and the 330 Rem. ington Magnum. The 6.5 Remington Magnum, in. troduced by Remington in 1966, combines flat tra jectory rith good, down. range velocities and energies for long distance, big gatne hunting. The 350 Remington Magnum, ifs troduced in 1965, is one of the most accurate cast. ridgés in its class. ‘Safety program - The'B.C.
