What reading level is Montana Outdoors Vol 3 No 8 Aug 1968 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Velocity was greatly increased. A new era of arms and ammunition had begun.
Guns arrived with the discovery of black powder. First came the hand cannon which was little more than a pipe into which pow- der and ball were placed. A small hole in the top rear was known as the touch hole. The cannon was fired by passing a red-hot wire through this hole into the powder charge.
Soon the touch hole on the hand cannon was moved from the top to the side and a small pan added directly underneath. A small... amount of powder was poured in this pan and ignited by using a pair of tongs to drop in a red-hot coal.
After the addition of the pan, the next important development was the match lock in the early 1400's. This was accomplished by adding an S-shaped piece pivoted in the center and holding linen or hemp cord that burned very slow- ly. The shooter merely lowered this red-hot cord to the flash pan by moving the rod with his fin- gers. This was a very important development. Man no longer need- ed to be near a fire to shoot and also his right hand gave him more support for aiming.
