According to Windy Klinect, this company was founded in 1898 and was reorganized as the Robin Hood Ammunition Company in 1906. In June of 1915, the company was purchased by Remington-U.M.C.. The overall length of this shotshell is 2.461” with a low .301” brass cup. This version has the yellow paper with five feathers on each arrow. The paper is lightly soiled with a few corrosion spots on the head of the cup. A very nice example of a highly collectible shotshell company!
